A Morning That Brings the YMCA Mission to Life

Join us for an inspiring morning at our Hour of Impact breakfast, where stories come to life and impact takes center stage.

This one-hour event highlights the life-changing work of the YMCA, sharing powerful stories of how lives are being transformed across Greater Grand Rapids, from children gaining confidence in the pool to seniors discovering renewed purpose through connection and wellness.

Through storytelling, video, and firsthand testimonies, you’ll see how your support fuels our mission to strengthen youth development, promote healthy living, and foster social responsibility.

Whether you’re a longtime supporter or new to the Y, this event will connect you to the heart of our work.

Real People. Real Impact.

Stories like this, shared at Hour of Impact, capture the heart of our mission and show how we are strengthening community and changing lives. Experience the inspiration for yourself at this year’s event.
