La Jolla Y'S Commitment

We know that when we work as one, we move people and communities forward. We are committed to providing support to our neighbors and opportunities for kids, adults, and families.

At the Y, building a strong global community begins at home. Ninety-two cents ($.92) of every dollar you donate will be put directly to work in programs that our Y provides to our local community. We serve more than 18,330 members and participants annually throughout the communities of La Jolla, University City, North Clairemont, Sorrento Valley, Carmel Valley and North Pacific Beach. Membership and program fees alone do not fully cover true costs of our services. Please consider supporting our many vital community needs.
