NAYDO Membership for Associations and Individuals

An unlimited number of Y staff and volunteers who are involved in advancing philanthropy can be members with a single NAYDO Association Membership. Click Here for List of YMCAs that are Current Association Members

YMCA financial development activities are led and championed by YMCA CEOs, development staff, branch executives and senior program staff in partnership with committed volunteer leaders. Wouldn’t you like them all to become members of NAYDO?

With a single Association Membership,  all staff and volunteers with leadership responsibilities may be included in that membership at no additional cost. Fee is determined by the Association budget size in U.S. or Canadian dollars and is payable in U.S. or Canadian dollars.

Individual Memberships are available to YMCA staff and volunteers whose Associations do not choose to purchase an Association Membership. Benefits are the same for both types of membership.
