As a new member of the YMCA this is my first Move to Give event. I am participating in the virtual Move to Give this year. Did you know that 1 in 10 YMCA members receives financial assistance to access our programs as they can't afford to pay full fees? This year the Move to Give fundraiser aims to raise $100,000 to help people access YMCA programs that they could not otherwise afford. I choose to MOVE and fundraise to GIVE back to my community because I believe everyone deserves to live a healthy life and reach their full potential. As a charity, we can only do this with support from our community.
I have been blessed with privildeges that are not afforded to all - my children have had many opportunites to be involved in sport and commuity activities. I am committed to raising $1,000 to help support the health and wellness of families in my community. I am an avid walker - typically about 5 km/day and on September 23rd, I will hike 15 km through Spingwater Park in Midhurst to support my Move to Give target.
I'm excited to be a part of something GREAT!
Now more than ever, the YMCA needs the support of those in our community. Will you help me to build a healthier community by donating today?
Thank you
