๐โจ Have Fun While School's Out! At the YMCA, our Afterschool program lets kids enjoy time together in a safe and engaging environment.

Itโs the perfect blend of relaxation and enrichment that keeps kids active.

๐ฑ Feeding our community, one box at a time. ๐ฆ
๐ Weโre grateful to have team members from Marketing, Stratford Richardson YMCA and the community volunteer at a recent Food Share.
๐ค In partnership with Nourish Up and hosted at our Stratford Richardson YMCA, these community events take place throughout the week at various YMCA centers. Together, we receive large donations of food, package them into individual boxes, and distribute them to families in need.
