This year, Hancock Whitney (https://www.facebook.com/HancockWhitney) gave a thoughtful gift that filled our Summer Day Camp with discovery, friendship, and fun—while their support of our Community Impact Services connected families across Greater Houston with vital resources.

For nine years, this generous donor has helped us strengthen our community, and we're so grateful for the difference they continue to make.

💙 The Y, Through My Eyes: A Day in the Life

One of my favorite parts of being at the Y is that no two days look exactly the same. And sometimes, the best days are the ones where I get to experience the Y right alongside our members, families, and staff. 🫶

My day started by checking in on our amazing team at the Unite the Fight Su***de Prevention event at Independence Park. From there, it was off to the Y to check on our basketball and soccer games—making sure our staff and officials had what they needed and that our kids were having a great experience. ⚽️🏀

And yes… I even jumped in and ran the scoreboard for a game! 😂

But the best part? Getting to watch my own son play basketball while watching my husband coach his team for the Y. ❤️ Those are the moments that remind me why what we do matters so much.

The Y isn’t just a place I work. It’s a place my family lives, plays, grows, and connects. And I love getting to see it from every angle.

And there’s even more fun coming! 🍂🎃

🎉 Fall Festival is October 10 from 5–8 PM at the Vic Coppinger Family YMCA! Come join us for live music, a costume contest, a haunted house, games, activities, and MORE! Stop by the front desk to buy your tickets for activities!! 🎟️

Bring your family, bring your friends, and come experience the Y with us! 💙

Social isolation affects nearly 1 in 4 adults 65+ and is linked by the CDC to a roughly 50% higher risk of dementia and other health concerns. Healthy aging requires connection and the YMCA of Greater Houston is a place to do it.

Through ForeverWell and senior-focused programming at the Y, adults 55 and better find reasons to show up and people to show up for, from group exercise and aquatics to dance classes, bus trips, and volunteer activities.

A gift today helps more older adults stay strong, stay social, and stay part of something: ymcahouston.org/give

FOMO. FOBO. Fear of disappointing someone. 😬

None of those are good reasons to say yes and our kids need help seeing that.

This week on Growing Strong Families: a simple 4-question filter to help kids make wise decisions, plus scripts for saying no when they need to.

Nationally, kids from lower-income families are far less likely to play organized sports than their peers, and cost is the biggest reason why.

Youth sports build more than athletic skill. Kids gain confidence, discipline, and teamwork that carry into the classroom and beyond.

At the YMCA, no kid should sit out because of cost. Give today so every young person has the chance to play and grow: ymcahouston.org/give
