2026 YMCA Sponsorship
One partnership. A year of impact. Building community together.
When you sponsor the Northwest Connecticut YMCA, you’re not just supporting one event — you’re investing in a full year of moments that bring our community together.
From the imagination of the Torrington Renaissance Faire, to the excitement of our NWCTY Grand Prix Race Series, the camaraderie of Pies for a Purpose, the friendly competition of the Autumn Tossdown Cornhole Tournament, and the community spirit behind Freezin’ for a Reason — our events celebrate connection, creativity, and generosity.
Your sponsorship helps make these experiences possible while directly supporting the YMCA’s mission to strengthen our community through youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.
Why Sponsor the Y?
Our new Annual Sponsorship Program offers year-long visibility and broader reach than ever before.
By partnering with the Y, your business or organization gains exposure across multiple high-profile community events, ongoing in-facility recognition, and year-round inclusion in YMCA communications.
In 2025 alone:
-
Over 1,500 attendees participated across our signature events
-
The YMCA reached more than 10,000 followers and subscribers through email and social media
-
Thousands more engaged with our programs, facilities, and community outreach throughout the year
An annual sponsorship means your brand is seen repeatedly, in meaningful ways, by families, adults, and community leaders who value local businesses that give back.
