MAYC programming is not funded by federal or state aid. Our funding predominantly comes from donations, sponsorships, and events. Since the community is our biggest source of funds, we take very seriously the stewardship of those funds. We have been recognized for our low cost to serve youth, which means that we help hundreds of youth per year for significantly less money than other organizations that have much larger budgets.
