At the YMCA, we believe that every child deserves to feel supported—physically, emotionally, and socially. That’s why we’re proud to share an exciting moment from our Before & After School program: thanks to a generous grant from Aldi, every child in the program received a bag of groceries to take home.
This effort was about more than handing out food. It was about nourishment in its truest sense—feeding growing bodies, relieving stress for families, and strengthening the community bonds that help young people thrive. Food insecurity remains a barrier for many families, and addressing it directly is a step toward ensuring all kids feel safe, valued, and ready to learn.
We’re grateful to Aldi for sharing our commitment to equity and well-being. When young people’s basic needs are met, they can show up fully—to school, to friendships, and to every opportunity that lies ahead.
At the Y, we nourish potential.
And with partners like Aldi, we’ll keep showing up for kids and families—every day, in every way we can.
Thank you for being part of a community that cares.
