I have served on the Board of Directors of the Valley of the Sun YMCA for 2 years and on the Glendale/Peoria YMCA Branch Board for over 20 years. I am committed to raising funds for the Y’s Annual Campaign to benefit youth and families in our community. 

In response to COVID-19, the YMCA has been offering childcare, preschool, meals, and transitional housing to those most in need in our communities. Since March 2020, the Y’s emergency childcare, preschool, and meals program has provided a safe, healthy environment for youth ages 12 months to 13 years. At our childcare locations, the YMCA has reached food-insecure youth and provided over 338,000 meals and snacks to children during the pandemic. 

Please consider supporting the Valley of the Sun YMCA 2021 Annual Campaign. Thank you, in advance, for your contribution and for becoming one of our "everyday heroes."
