Did You Know?

In 2016, the Guelph Y offered more than $324,000 of financial assistance to our members. This means that 1 in 5 members are able to access the Y because of this support.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential. Financial assistance subsidizes a portion of an individual or family's membership so that fees are not a barrier to achieving your health goals. The Guelph Y is a place where everyone belongs.

How it Works

Financial assistance is reserved for families who are:

  • Unable, not unwilling to pay full fees
  • Committed to using the Y on a regular basis
  • Committed to pay the agreed portion of fees during the decided term:
