My name is Adam Spiegel, and I serve as the Executive Director of Community Philanthropy for the YMCA of Greater Houston. In my role, I support local YMCAs in building meaningful relationships with donors to strengthen programs for youth, teens, adults, families, and seniors. I’m also a YMCA youth sports parent—coaching my 4-year-old, Luci, and 6-year-old, Daniel, in soccer this season. I’ve seen firsthand how powerful it is when kids have a chance to be part of a team, learn new skills, and grow in confidence. I donate to the YMCA because of the impact in makes in the lives of our friends.
