8th Annual Taekwondo Kick-a-thon
Saturday, April 20
|
 Every kid deserves a chance to reach their full potential. At the YMCA, we believe that every child should be able to go to summer camp, to learn to swim, to be active and play sports - and to have a place where they are safely cared for.  But not every family can afford to provide these things for their children. The generosity of donors to our YMCA Strong Kids campaign makes it possible for those with financial limitations to access YMCA programs that help develop their spirit, mind and body - like Taekwondo! You can help by making a gift or by raising funds for our Kick-a-thon. To find out more, visit Kick-a-thon. |
