YMCA of Greater Flint

What YMCA of Greater Flint does

YMCA of Greater Flint is a private nonprofit charitable organization founded in 1879 and headquartered in Flint, Michigan, serving residents of Genesee County. It operates a community-based membership model through two year-round branch facilities — the Downtown Branch at 719 Harrison St. in Flint and the Pierson Rd Branch in Flushing — and a third seasonal site, Camp Copneconic, a 25-acre overnight and day camp property in Fenton. The organization delivers youth development, aquatics, fitness, health, and community-service programs to approximately 8,000 youth, families, and seniors annually.

The core program portfolio spans swim lessons and water safety education (including the free Safety Around Water initiative delivered in partnership with Flint Community Schools, the Flint Falcons competitive swim team, and Red Cross lifeguard certification), youth sports (basketball, soccer, flag football, volleyball, cheerleading), the Discovery Trails summer day camp, group fitness classes (Zumba, yoga, Pilates, cycling, boxing), personal training, health programs (Diabetes Prevention, Nutrition Made Easy), and the Safe Places after-school and summer youth program. Technology is built on the Daxko operations platform for membership management, program registration, and donation processing, complemented by a Daxko-branded mobile app on Apple and Android for schedules and program access.

The revenue model combines three streams: recurring membership fees (subscription), program fees for youth sports, swim lessons, day camps, fitness classes, and personal training (per-session pricing), and tax-deductible donations that underwrite financial assistance and free community programs. Pricing is tiered between member and community-member rates (e.g., youth basketball $75 members / $100 community; Discovery Trails day camp $210 / $225 per session). The organization is recognized as a USA Swimming Foundation Make a Splash partner and operates within the broader YMCA of the USA national affiliation while remaining an independently governed local nonprofit.
