Black & Latino Achievers Clothing Drive

During December, the Capital District YMCA's Black & Latino Achievers conducted a clothing and food drive at each of the Capital District YMCA locations. The drive showcased the Y's focus on social responsibility and resulted in 2 full vans of clothing being donated to the Capital City Rescue Mission in Albany.

We'd like to thank all of our members and the community for donating so many items to help those in need.

The Y is one of the nation's leading nonprofits, strengthening communities through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Across the US, 2,687 Ys engage 21 million men, women and children -- regardless of age, income or background -- to nurture the potential of children and teens, improve the nation's health and well-being, and provide opportunities to give back and support neighbors. Anchored in more than 10,000 communities, the Y has the long-standing relationships and physical presence to deliver lasting personal and social change. The Capital District YMCA serves those in need with locations in Albany, Bethlehem, Camp Chingachgook on Lake George, Clifton Park, Coxsackie, East Greenbush, Glenville, Greene County, Guilderland, Niskayuna, Schenectady and Troy.
