9. ANNUAL CAMPAIGN PRIORITY:
YOUTH DEVELOPMENT
“Thank you for the scholarships for youth sports and child care. I have
no idea where my family would be at financially without your help.
When my son is at the Y, he’s just a regular kid. That’s what is so
special about your programs; they are open to everyone regardless of
their economic background or abilities. Thank you so much.”

Editor's Notes
We’re here to talk about Urban Youth Fund, our vision for Urban Youth Fundand it’s community’s future, and how you can be a part of it by supporting our annual campaign.Throughout the Toledo communities, people may know the Urban Youth Fundas a great place to work out or swim…
But we’re not just a gym.And we’re not just a pool.We’re so much more…[transition]
From exercise to educationFrom volleyball to volunteerismFrom preschool to preventive healthWe don’t just strengthen bodies,We help kids achieve their goals;We help families come together;We help communities build connections.
The Y is the nation’s largest nonprofit dedicated to strengthening community throughYouth DevelopmentHealthy LivingSocial Responsibility[For each of these three areas of focus, share a single story or example from your Y that expresses that area of the Y’s mission. The stories should focus on the impact on people and communities, not on the details of the program. If possible, try to feature examples that that would cause the audience to rethink what they know about the Y, and that broaden the audience’s conception of the Y.]Youth Development means…[story or example]Healthy Living means...[story or example]Social Responsibility means…[story or example]
We believe Toledo can be so much more.More healthy.More connected.More active.More welcoming.That’s why…[transition]
…we have joined Ys across the country to increase public awareness of the work that we do and generate more philanthropic support . Throughour Annual Campaign we make sure that everyone in Toledo has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. Now, however, Toledo faces new challenges that create a greater need for the work we do every day, such as:Erosion in social/emotional development leading to risky youth behaviorHigh rates of obesity and chronic diseaseSpeed and complexity of change within demographics and family structuresFor us, this means taking everything we do to the next level.This means investing in the people, communities and programs that can make Toledo stronger.Fortunately, where some see obstacles, we see opportunities for our members, volunteers and staff to make a difference.In order to do it, we’re going to focus on a few major priorities…[transition]
[This is the first of three slides that describe particular priorities/projects. A BRANCH might have more or less than this, but three is a good number to plan around. Ideally, the priorities will align with each of the three areas of focus. The slide content will depend on the project, but can follow a simple template, as below.]We’re committed to Youth Development.That’s why one priority in this campaign is [X][Tell a quick story about the program or project. If it is a new program, tell a story about the people or communities that it will reach/serve.][Describe the rationale and purpose of the project.][Give a few details about the project, how it will work, what it will accomplish—but not ALL the details.]
We’re committed to Healthy Living.That’s why another major priority in this campaign is [X][Tell a quick story about the program or project.

We’re committed to Social Responsibility.That’s why our next major priority in this campaign is [X][Tell a quick story about the program or project.

Be sure to use easy to visualize examples
Only you can make our vision for a stronger and healthier Toledo possible.The generous support of our community fuels everything we do.[Additional comments about the role of philanthropy in the BRANCH OR association’s mission and programs: What does philanthropy make possible that other revenues cannot? Could just be a single example or story of a program, opportunity, scholarship, etc that philanthropy made possible.]Every gift makes a difference.Everyone has a role to play…[transition]
Together, we can achieve so much more.Givetoday.[Thank you/discussion]
