Please check your Member Card and pick up a new one at no cost at the Member Service Desk if necessary.

  • If you decide to join after your trial month, the regular monthly rate will be charged to your account.

EMPLOYEE WELLNESS PROGRAM

Corporate Membership Programs Include:

  • Joining Fees Waived

  • Annual Service and Social Opportunities for Team Members
  • Membership includes free workout child care and reduced rates on youth activities and programs, such as swim lessons, day camp, sports classes, and more!

Through a YMCA corporate membership, your employees have access to many resources for increased physical activity social connections, and overall improved health.

  • Reduced Healthcare Costs

    The majority of US healthcare expenses can be attributed to the diagnosis and treatment of chronic diseases and health conditions, such as diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, and high blood pressure. Positive lifestyle changes, such as increased physical activity and a heathy diet can often prevent these costly medical conditions before they arise.

  • Increased Productivity and Moral

    Workers who exercise regularly tend to have more energy and be more productive while at work. As little as 30 minutes of physical activity several times a week can have a significant positive impact on workers' physical and mental well-being.

  • Decreased Turnover

    Many employees view health promotion programs as an added perk that makes them feel valued and appreciated by their employer. Employees who feel valued are less likely to seek employment elsewhere, decreasing turnover. Similarly, a well-being program can serve as a valuable recruiting tool as you seek to attract the best possible talent to your organization.

  • Decreased Absenteeism

    Employees suffering from chronic health conditions are more likely to miss work than healthy employees. Helping workers make positive lifestyle changes can reduce absenteeism and the drain it represents on company morale.

All of our Corporate Wellness Partnerships are designed to be true partnerships between the YMCA and the employer contributing to better your employees’ health and well-being.

In this plan, the YMCA matches your contribution to your employees up to $5.

This means, if you contribute $5 to your employee’s membership costs, the YMCA will match that, and your employees will receive $10 off their monthly membership payment.

Positive lifestyle changes, such as increased physical activity and a heathy diet can often prevent these costly medical conditions before they arise.

  • Increased Productivity and Moral

    Workers who exercise regularly tend to have more energy and be more productive while at work. As little as 30 minutes of physical activity several times a week can have a significant positive impact on workers' physical and mental well-being.

  • Decreased Turnover

    Many employees view health promotion programs as an added perk that makes them feel valued and appreciated by their employer. Employees who feel valued are less likely to seek employment elsewhere, decreasing turnover. Similarly, a well-being program can serve as a valuable recruiting tool as you seek to attract the best possible talent to your organization.

  • Decreased Absenteeism

    Employees suffering from chronic health conditions are more likely to miss work than healthy employees. Helping workers make positive lifestyle changes can reduce absenteeism and the drain it represents on company morale.

All of our Corporate Wellness Partnerships are designed to be true partnerships between the YMCA and the employer contributing to better your employees’ health and well-being.

In this plan, the YMCA matches your contribution to your employees up to $5.

This means, if you contribute $5 to your employee’s membership costs, the YMCA will match that, and your employees will receive $10 off their monthly membership payment.
