About Young Men'S Christian Association of the Triangle Area Inc (4598)
A defining feature of The Young Men's Christian Association of the Triangle Area Inc (4598) is the size of its support to Fidelity Investments Charitable Gift Fund, which received the two largest recent grants: $3,095,304 in 2023 and $1,515,090 in 2024, both for general support. That pattern puts unrestricted funding at the center of the foundation’s recent giving, alongside smaller grants that also carry a general-support designation. The foundation’s stated purpose is to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all, and its existing focus areas point to youth development, health and wellness, education and academic support, family strengthening, camps and overnight youth programs, financial assistance and sliding scale services, and planned giving and endowments. Recent grants also show support for YMCA Blue Ridge Assembly and the National Council of Ymcas of the USA, both funded for general support. Taken together, the record suggests a funder that uses flexible dollars to sustain YMCA-related institutions and related charitable vehicles rather than narrowly restricted project grants. Its latest 990 is on file for 2024, and its annual grants total $4,644,394.
