When you give to the Y, you are funding life-changing programs that help thousands of children, adults, and families in Alamance County learn, grow, and thrive.
I was first impacted by the YMCA in 1983 as a teenager being raised by a single mom in a rural community in Eastern NC. I took lifeguard training at the downtown Y in Raleigh. My first job with the Y was as a summer camp counselor at Camp Sea Gull in 1986. Camp and the Y gave an impressionable young man an opportunity to uncover his self worth providing the confidence and tools securing a 38 year career of serving others as a YMCA employee.
The Y provided me with a life changing experience not only as a teenager but also each day I'm blessed to serve as a team member serving others.
Please join me in supporting our Y so that the significant impact that was made in my life will be available in equipping others seeking the life changing experiences provided through our programs and services.
