BRIGHT BEGINNINGS

Bright BeginningsThe Y makes strengthening communities our cause. We strongly believe that children, who have the necessities they need to succeed, can focus on learning rather than worrying about having shoes to wear on the playground and crayons to color their assignments. By pairing a child with a caring adult volunteer "shopping buddy," children also learn that our community cares about them and wants them to succeed. YMCA Bright Beginnings makes for confident and prepared kids on the first day of school and contributing and engaged adults tomorrow. 

 

Donate or volunteer for Bright Beginnings! All donations are greatly appreciated; sponsoring 10 children ($1,500) or even just one or two children at $150 each, makes a difference. Click here to donate now! 

 

Becoming a shopping buddy requires no more than a ready smile, less than three hours of your time, and the desire to help a child. Individuals and small groups are always welcome. Click here to sign up to volunteer on Wednesday, August 15th, Thursday, August 16th, or both days!
