This month’s gratification post is to the Hockomock Area YMCA! Each month we thank an individual, business and/or organization who supports our efforts but this month we would like to extend an extra thank you to the entire team at the YMCA! The YMCA has partnered with the Center for years on fitness programming, grants, food security initiatives including grab N’ Go, free breakfast and lunch over summer and free snack and dinners during school year, remote learning over COVID and this past summer allowing our summer camp program free access to their indoor pool twice a week while Fino Pool was being renovated as well as lake access! Most recently, the YMCA has partnered with us to also give out Thanksgiving meal kits with gift cards to our families in need, offer a monthly Mobile Food Pantry for our after-school members as well as plan our first annual MYC Golf Tournament! Those are just some of the ways the YMCA has shown their support and shared their resources with us over the years! Thank you to the Hockomock Area YMCA!
