The Burris family’s full story is here. 💙
Through YMCA of Greater Charlotte’s afterschool and summer day camp programs, the Burris family found a welcoming place where they could learn, grow, and feel supported. Today, they remain an active part of the Y community, with Alysia working as a day camp counselor and Savion as a swim instructor.
Their story is one example of what’s possible at the Y.
Throughout September, every donation to Y Give supports our mission and impact across the community. Plus, thanks to our Official Joy Sponsor, Coca-Cola Consolidated, the first $50,000 in donations will be matched.

Take Back Sports is designed to get and keep kids playing by making youth sports more accessible and fun. We loved bringing that mission to life as kids and families tried new sports, jumped into drills, and cheered one another on.
At the Y, youth sports give kids of all skill levels a place to play, grow in confidence, practice teamwork, and discover a love for the game.
