The YMCA depends upon its community, so we make it a habit to give back. Last year, we awarded $1,921,269 in Financial Assistance to Y families thanks to our generous donors & sponsors. For Giving Tuesday, we challenged our participants to raise funds for even more kids; this month, we're challenging you. The holidays are just around the corner, and we know that holiday meals, gifts, and travel add up. However, we also know that more than ever kids need community, friendships, and place to learn, grow, and thrive every single day. Will you help us make that happen, with just a small $1-10 donation? Every single penny donated to the YMCA of Northern Utah goes straight to our scholarship fund and ensures that every one has equitable access to a quality program in a safe space.

We want to highlight one of our kids of the week for the month of November, Kayden A.! Kayden was recognized by staff for his remarkable and consistent acts of caring and empathy towards his peers. Staff have also noticed his natural inclination to help others and is known to speak up for his peers. Kayden's care and respect towards his peers and staff is why he was chosen as the kid of the week. Congratulations to Kayden and all our kids of the week for the month of November!
