Y AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS ENSURE SAFETY AND SUCCESS FOR YOUTH

The YMCA of South Palm Beach County is launching a new 3-year initiative called “Building Possibilities” to better serve the community as its needs evolve. The plan focuses on expanding childcare and youth programs, promoting lifelong wellness, strengthening group exercise and sports, and creating more customized programs.

The YMCA of South Palm Beach County received a donated bus from Margaret Blume, providing reliable transportation for children in afterschool and summer camp programs. This gift will support thousands of local youth by ensuring safe travel to activities, field trips, and enriching experiences for years to come.

The “Inspiring New Leaders” story highlights Kelley Marcus, a longtime YMCA supporter and leader whose dedication has helped shape the organization’s growth and impact. Through his leadership and community involvement, he has played a key role in advancing the YMCA’s mission and inspiring future generations.
