YMCA of Greater Indianapolis

Brennan walked into the YMCA as a seventh grader just looking for a place to train.

What he found was so much more 💙

A place to grow.
A place to belong.
A place that believed in him.

Day by day, Brennan put in the work — and today, he’s an Indiana Boys Basketball All-Star, a multi-sport athlete, a Distinguished Scholar and even an author… all at just 17.

Stories like Brennan’s don’t happen by chance. They start with people like you.

Because of you, kids in our community have a safe place to show up, grow and discover who they can become.

And there are more kids just like Brennan right now, searching for that same sense of belonging.

Today, April 30, is the YMCA Day of Giving.

Be the reason someone belongs.
