Samuel Smith's Story
As an employee in the teen department at the Everett Family YMCA for the past three years, I have experienced first hand how this campaign impacts our teen programming. Over the years, we have been able to visit colleges and put together fun, informative programming for our middle and high school students. Every dollar goes towards better serving youth that, without this program, would have very limited options for constructive activities immediately after school. Please join me in the fundraising effort for the Everett Y's teen programming.
