"Wild About Kids" Annual Partners with Youth Campaign set to kick off on February 21.
Did you know that the YMCA is one of the nation's top 10 charities? Forbes magazine recently listed the Y as the 10th largest recipient of private support, nationwide, and the second oldest large charity in the country as well.
Each year, the YMCA of Greater Spartanburg gives away hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarships, free programs, and subsidized memberships and programs to people who otherwise couldn't afford to send their children to afterschool, summer day camp, swimming lessons and youth sports leagues. In fact, last year we were able to provide almost $684,000 to our community through our annual Partners with Youth campaign.
Please consider getting involved this year. One hundred percent of your contribution will directly impact the life of a child in our community, and the return on that investment will last a lifetime. For more information or to make a donation, click here. |
