💜🏆 Coatesville YMCA Celebrates a Year of Impact!
$1.5 MILLION+ raised. Communities strengthened. Lives changed.
What an incredible evening celebrating the power of the YMCA of Greater Brandywine and the collective impact we make when we come together for something bigger than ourselves.
Our Coatesville YMCA leadership, staff, board members and community leaders had the opportunity to join our association-wide Annual Campaign Victory Celebration and celebrate an incredible milestone: more than $1.5 million raised across the association this year to help strengthen and serve our communities. 👏🏾
And while the celebration was association-wide, we’re especially proud of the work happening right here in Coatesville. 💜
🎯 Our Coatesville YMCA campaign goal: $100,000
💰 Raised so far: $90,000+
We may not have reached our $100,000 goal yet, but we have already raised more at this point in the campaign than we had at the same time last year—and our team isn’t finished! Every conversation, donation, event, sponsorship and act of generosity brings us closer to our goal and, more importantly, helps us continue creating opportunities for children, families and individuals throughout our community.
And we had an extra special reason to celebrate! 🎉
Congratulations to our very own Marcus Jeter, Membership & Community Impact Director, and Michelle Baker, Coatesville YMCA Board Member, who were recognized with Coatesville YMCA campaigner awards for their leadership and commitment to this year’s Annual Campaign! 🏆👏🏾
This recognition represents more than two individuals—it represents the many people who helped make our campaign possible.
A special thank-you to everyone from the Coatesville YMCA who came out to celebrate, including our Executive Director Freddy Christmas, Senior Program Director Stephen Dennis, our dedicated board members, leadership team and community partners. Your leadership, generosity and belief in the mission make a difference every day.
The work continues. The goal is still $100,000. And the impact is already being felt. ❤️
Because at the Y, fundraising isn’t just about reaching a number.
It’s about making sure our community has access to the people, programs and opportunities that help everyone thrive.
Congratulations to the entire YMCA of Greater Brandywine family on raising more than $1.5 million for our communities! 🎉💜
Coatesville, we’re not done yet! Let’s finish strong. 💪🏾
