At this morning's Gratitude Breakfast, we celebrated the people who help bring our Y's mission to life every day. Volunteers, corporate partners, donors, board members, and long-time members of our Y (25+ years!) gathered together at the Park Street Y. As our CEO Buddy Evans said, "Because of our supporters, we are able to provide programs that ensure that no one is left behind – whether its offering a safe place for children to learn and grow, providing support for families in need, helping individuals to lead healthier lives, teaching a child the life-saving skill of swim, or providing socialization for seniors." Many thanks to our sponsor Hackensack Meridian Mountainside Medical Center and to all those in attendance for helping to build a strong, inclusive community FOR ALL here at our Y.

It was a busy weekend at the YMCA of Montclair. Our dedicated Board of Directors and executive staff leadership had an inspiring Annual Board Retreat on Saturday, November 16. The first half of the day our strategic objectives for 2025 were set. The second half of the day we were privileged to share space with renowned non-profit leadership author Joan Garry and our friends from the Greater Somerset County YMCA for a session around deepening our Culture of Philanthropy. Impactful times are ahead as we continue to serve our community! The Y. For a Better Us.
