WHERE PLAY MEETS POSSIBILITY

SALEM YMCA ROOFTOP PLAY SPACE

IMAGINE WHAT THIS ROOFTOP CAN BECOME

A safe, vibrant outdoor space above the city-built for the more than 200 preschool and school-age children we serve each day at the Salem YMCA. In a dense urban setting, outdoor space is limited. This rooftop will change that-transforming unused space into a place for movement, exploration, and joyful daily play. Because of early leadership support, this vision is within reach. Your commitment helps bring it to life.

CURRENT SPACE
