This new year, we invite you to focus on building stronger connections and giving back to our community. At the Somerville Y, we're more than just a gym – we're a family. Join us in volunteering, participating in community events and making a positive impact here in Somerville. Together, we can make 2025 a year of unity and support! 💜☺️ Learn more at somervilleymca.org/give

We were so happy to present a brand new RadKick e-bike to our first 4 recipients and participants in our Community E-Bike Program yesterday! We hope these bikes will be a helpful transportation resource to these 4 young adults. Thank you for being champions of sustainable transportation and happy New Bike Day 👏😁 Big thanks to Liberty Mutual Insurance and RadPower Bikes LLC for helping us make this initiative happen, and to the Dojo at Somernova for lending us their space!

We are very excited to announce the launch of Round 2 of our Somerville YMCA Community E-Bike Program! This second round of the program is geared toward individuals aged 55+ who live in or work in Somerville. With this initiative we hope to increase mobility, promote community engagement, and support healthy and sustainable movement in Somerville's senior population. If you or someone you know meets these criteria and would benefit from owning an electric bike, you can find the application through this link: https://lnkd.in/eaMU84wM

Yesterday some of our after school program kids got to spend the afternoon at PUMA Headquarters in Assembly Row enjoying a ❄️Winter Wonderland❄️! Cookies were decorated, slime was made, and wintery games were played! Thanks to the AMAZING team at PUMA who made this event happen, we are so grateful to have such an engaged and passionate community partner 👏☃️🩵 PUMA Group Regan McCrossan

Thank you to everyone who participated in our 2024 Partners With Youth Giving Challenge over the past three days! You made the challenge a great success, and increased your impact even more by helping us unlock matching funds for each day. We know that when kids have access to the right resources—whether it’s affordable childcare, safe spaces for learning, or opportunities to build confidence—they have the foundation they need to succeed. Every gift—no matter the size—helps ensure that every child has the opportunity to thrive. We are so grateful for your support, and we look forward to the future of our community. 💝

We’re flowing toward our goal! Help us hit 76 donations by 5 PM today to release matching funds and support youth programs at the Somerville YMCA. It’s the final push—let’s make it count! 💙 #PartnersWithYouth

🌊 Today, we’re riding the wave of generosity for the last day of the Partners With Youth Giving Challenge. Can we reach 76 total challenge donations- the same number of square miles that the Mystic River watershed encompasses- by 5 PM to unlock the final round of matching funds? Every donation is a step closer to a stronger, healthier Somerville! #MysticRiverChallenge #PartnersWithYouth

We’re aiming for 15 donations by the end of the day to unlock matching funds from our underwriters! We’re halfway there—don’t miss your chance to be part of this movement for Somerville’s youth! ✨💙 #GivingTuesday #PartnersWithYouth Donate Now ➡️https://lnkd.in/eRDhCRxz
