YMCA SUPPORT...PLEASE

We have this wonderful YMCA finally built! But REMEMBER, programs always need our support. Please take a moment to read the attached, write your check and give yourself a pat on the back for supporting your community and your YMCA! Thanks!!!

Dear Friends of the “Y”,

The Claire Chapin Epps Family YMCA is at the threshold of an exciting future. Our new facility opened this past October and has already doubled it’s membership base. Your YMCA serves the Myrtle Beach community with health awareness, family support and youth development programs. We must keep pace with the demand.
Your YMCA is a community-based organization that has been and continues to be committed to the progressive development of people in spirit, mind and body. Since 1983, we have been mobilizing the energy, ideas and resources of people to provide programs and services that offer diverse opportunities to everyone in our community, including those who are disadvantaged or have special needs.
We ask that you consider partnering with your YMCA this year by donating to our 2010 Partnership with Youth Campaign. This year our goal is to double the number of partners to 500 while raising $53,000 for this program. We understand that this is a difficult time for everyone and this is why YOUR COMMUNITY needs YOUR SUPPORT now more than ever. Your YMCA continues to offer over $65,000 a year in program scholarships which enables families in need to participate in Y-After School, Summer Camp, Youth Sports, At-Risk Teen Programs and with the new YMCA now open, Learn to Swim Programs. Money raised through this campaign is used to provide financial assistance for children and youth to participate in these YMCA programs throughout the year. The YMCA turns no one away due to their inability to pay.
Every child, adult and senior citizen deserves the positive opportunities that YMCA programs and services provide, and we need community support to continue to make that possible for all. The YMCA's focus is to empower people. Character values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility are incorporated in everything we do, including all of our children's programs.
Please use the enclosed pledge card to make your tax deductible donations. Donations can be mailed to: Claire Chapin Epps Family YMCA: PO Box 7338, Myrtle Beach, SC 29572. Checks should be made out to: YMCA. Our new YMCA building is complete, but programs NEVER end. Please give what you can…….Thanks.

With grateful appreciation,

Penny Boling
YMCA Board Memberback for supporting your community and our YMCA! Thanks!
