A heartfelt thank you to all of our donors who give the gift of opportunity!
Our outreach team was speaking with a teen recently and offered them a Youth Access Membership. While the teen was very grateful for this offer, they quietly shared, “I would love to go to the Y, but I don’t have sneakers.”
Because of some incredible generosity from our community, the YMCA Fredericton was able to start an equipment fund in late 2023. This fund provides brand new sneakers, bathing suits and even gym socks to people in our community who otherwise wouldn’t be able to participate in physical activity and recreation.
The equipment fund is a goal tied to our strategic plan. These sneakers are the bridge for this young person to have the opportunity to participate in a healthy and active lifestyle, igniting their potential and finding a place to belong at the YMCA.
If you would like to support this initiative, please consider a donation to the Fredericton YMCA, a charity igniting the potential in people!
