About the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign
The YMCA Strong Kids Campaign is a program operated by each local YMCA with the
purpose of raising funds to support the mandate of the program. The mandate is very simple:
"Your generous donation will help the YMCA, to ensure people of all ages are healthier and more productive regardless of their background or financial circumstance."
During 2013, the YMCA of North Bay was able to provide more than $250,000 in assistance to children, youth and families in the community. Access to childcare, camp, recreation, fitness and swim programs are made available as a result of the Strong Kids Campaign.
Donations are accepted in person at the YMCA or online at www.ymcastrongkids.ca.
