FIND YOUR JOY, AND SHARE IT!

Y Appeal Year End Social Post 1080x1080 Find Joy KidsAs we near the end of another year, we are filled with hope and optimism. Every day we are reminded of the power of community – whether it’s a child blowing bubbles underwater for the first time, a person running their first 5K, or a teenager realizing the power of volunteering through leadership programs.

These milestones are possible because of the unwavering support from people like you.

The power of the Y—and the power of community—is everyday people supporting each other in creating a better life.

While we celebrate each milestone, we know there is more work to be done. Children, families, and adults continue to need sup­port, and the Y is committed to meeting those needs. But we can’t do it alone. We need caring neighbors like you.

With the magic of the giving season upon us, we ask you to find your joy and share it with others. Your support can mean the world to your neighbors in need.

Your gift will make a meaningful difference in so many lives.
