Park Cities YMCA Announces Fund Goal
The Park Cities YMCA announced its 2016 annual scholarship fundraising goal of $435,000 Nov. 9.
The financial assistance “Y for All” program reduces fees for people wanting to participate in the organization’s programs, mostly sports, or get memberships, and allows for people who cannot pay at all to participate as well.
“No one is turned away, and we’re blessed that we’re surrounded by people who have hearts to give and know that our community reaches beyond the Park Cities borders,” said Roger Moon, Park Cities YMCA executive director.
Other programs offered at the Y include free swim lessons to prevent children from drowning, and the Youth and Government program which educates kids on democracy at the district and state level.
