Reading is fun! It's also critical to a child’s success in school, and in life. Power Scholars encourages students to build their knowledge through the summer, so they are prepared for the upcoming year. #SummerLearningWeek

Summer Learning Week is July 15-19 and the YMCA OF GREATER RICHMOND is excited to share four ways you can keep your family learning all summer long! #SummerLearningWeek

Two weeks out of the summer, our teen leaders hop on a bus and travel to Blue Ridge Leaders School ,hosted by YMCA Blue Ridge Assembly, with hundreds of other young leaders who are striving to better themselves. Leaders' Club at the Y creates a space for teens to be themselves and be surrounded by people who intentionally focus on their success. One week down, one to go!

School is in session by August 19, and we are seeking caring and ENTHUSIASTIC counselors and staff for our team. When you join our team, you receive a FREE metro-wide membership, the opportunity to join a community that supports your growth, and is full of rewarding moments. Before and after school care at the YMCA OF GREATER RICHMOND could your best next step! https://lnkd.in/eDEsDrYG

Teamwork keeps our campers safe. Thunderbird staff break down important lessons that help campers to make one more move. It's not just about making it to the top, it's about taking one more step than what you thought you could! https://bit.ly/Camp_Tbird #SummerBucketList2024 #Achievement #OneMoreMove

Freeman High School students and Tuckahoe Family YMCA partnered together to create a World Refugee display that includes stories from refugee families! On World Refugee Day and every day, be kind and welcome your neighbors with open arms and caring hearts. You never know what someone has gone through to be where they are today, so remember to always practice kindness, patience and acceptance. #WorldRefugeeDay #ForAll

This is the result of volunteerism at the Y! We rely on volunteers to build (pun intended) strong communities and create new opportunities for families.  We love our new playground at the Manchester Family YMCA! Again, thank you to KABOOM! and The CarMax Foundation!    #ThankfulThursday

Juneteenth, celebrated on June 19th, celebrates the emancipation of those who were enslaved—two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation. To celebrate, the Y invites you to learn more about this day of freedom! https://bit.ly/4bqbLHX #Juneteenth #YForAll
