    Financial summary

    In the past year, we opened up two Early Learning Centres in Wyndham Vale and Tarneit, and the Board made the strategic decision to exit out of the retirement living sector during the year. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was significant, not only financially but also on our customers, suppliers, council partners and staff. For the year ending 30 June 2020, YMCA Victoria had a consolidated net deficit of $88,479.

    More about the Y

    COVID-19

    What a curveball 2020 has been. The pandemic has had enormous repercussions across the world, from the devastating public health effects, economic downturns and mental health struggles. Here at the Y, each of our sectors has been significantly impacted by COVID-19, but in different ways.

    Introduction

    The past year has been one of the most challenging years in the Y Victoria’s 176-year history. We entered 2020 as a nation devastated by the bushfires raging across Australia. Then, as we began to recover from a tragic summer, the global coronavirus pandemic turned everything we had planned, both at work and in our personal lives, upside down.
