The YMCA of Central Florida would like to thank our partners at Tivity Health for their recent donation of 100 gift cards that we were able to provide to our Central Florida neighbors in need. At both the South Orlando YMCA and Wayne Densch YMCA, Y team members helped to identify those who are in financial need, whether to support a medical aliment, hurricane relief following Irma, or other distress.
One member at Wayne Densch told our Y team, “Hurricane Irma has come and gone, but it left lots of physical as well as emotional damage behind. For me, it was both, as I was thrown into a brief state of confusion/fear by the loud sound of a tree crashing down on my house at 4:30 am.” We are grateful to Tivity Health and the SilverSneakers® program for providing support to this YMCA member and others with similar stories, giving them some relief during their moments of need.
