“Thank YOU and the team for the training today. I called our CEO afterward and couldn't stop talking about how great this is going to be for us. We appreciate all the work YPG is doing to help lower our overhead and increase our productivity. Centralizing all of these vendors into a “one-stop shop” is a game changer for efficiency for us…and that's before we even venture into product savings.”

Patrick Mainieri, COO, Bloomington-Normal YMCA

Vendors for YMCAs:

YMCAs have access to vendors of all varieties in the Marketplace. Many of our vendors already have relationships with your YMCA and some do not, but most important is that ALL the vendors have discounted pricing for your YMCA in place. YPurchasing will be onboarding new vendors every month with contracted pricing from both YPG, Gro, and YUSA. Be sure to check back each month to see an updated list of active vendors and vendors who are in the process of being added to the site.

Standard Online Platform for YMCAs:

No matter how large or small, every YPurchasing member may enjoy the benefits of using this online shopping resource. There is no cost to YPurchasing members for the basic platform and there will be no limit to the number of users. The approval workflow is simple and orders may be submitted directly to vendors. Need a recap of your YMCA’s purchasing history? It’s all right here in YPG Marketplace online. Training and onboarding will be available to all YMCA users.
