Hudson Valley YMCA receives $3.5 million Anonymous Donation

A Hudson Valley YMCA received $3.5 million in funding from an anonymous donor.

The YMCA in Kingston announced on Monday an unknown person from the Community Foundation of the Hudson Valley donated $3.5 million.

The money will go towards what officials describe as essential infrastructure repairs and critical upgrades.

"We are looking forward to unveiling an improved YMCA to our members and families, a YMCA spokesperson said in a press release. "We are immensely grateful for this donation."

The YMCA building located at 507 Broadway in Kingston was built in the late 1960s. It now includes an indoor swimming pool, track, multiple fitness rooms, a pulmonary room, free weights and childcare rooms.

GRO Development, LLC will assess the YMCA facilities to determine the best use of the donation. YMCA members and the community will also have the chance to offer their input, officials say. Officials will release full plans once they are developed.
