Bright Beginnings 2007

With your help hundreds of children in our community will have a bright beginning this school year carrying a new backpack filled with new pencils and notebooks. Walking into school the first day without a pencil, and paper, can be detrimental to a child’s self esteem and confidence.The YMCA of Central Virginia, is hopeful that a little effort and caring spirit will help children in our community have better attendance records, and build their self worth to provide a vital foundation to academic achievement and success.

Here's how you can help:

1. Donate. A financial contribution of $50 will provide an excellent start with backpacks filled with school supplies.

2. Become a Backpack buddy.  Purchase a backpack, fill it with supplies, and drop it off at the YMCA.  A list of necessary supplies is available at your local YMCA.

3. Volunteer are needed for Saturday August 18th.
