Thanks to Operation Warm and Subaru and the incredible support of our community, the Rockland County YMCA was able to provide 180 Nyack Head Start children with warm coats, shoes, and socks this winter. This feel-good event brought together volunteers, local leaders, and partners to make a lasting difference for families in need.

The Rockland YMCA Rangers enjoyed a memorable trip to Barclays Center, highlighted by a close win over The Sons of Hudson on an NBA court. The experience included meeting Brooklyn Nets head coach Jordi Fernández, celebrating together afterward, and watching an exciting overtime Nets game, with select players even high-fiving the team at halftime. It was a special day filled with competition, fun, and inspiration.

A simple Sunday ride became a reminder of what makes the Y special: people showing up for one another. At the YMCA, these small acts of generosity create a community where everyone feels at home.

Giving Tuesday was a huge success at the Rockland County YMCA! Because of your kindness — and more than $7,500 in donations — we can continue strengthening our programs and supporting families across Rockland County. Thank you to everyone who engaged with us, learned more about our work, and contributed virtually or in person. Your support truly makes a difference.

The 2025 YMCA Gala was a night to remember, marking one of the most successful celebrations in recent history. With more than 200 guests in attendance—the largest turnout in years—the event raised over $85,000 to support youth scholarships and vital community programs.
