DONATION EXPANDS YMCA TEEN SCHOLARSHIP FOR AT RISK TEENS

The YMCA’s Teen Achievers Summit brings together local teens for a day of workshops, mentorship, and hands-on experiences that inspire positive choices and future success. Through career exploration, financial education, and community service, participants gain valuable skills while connecting with peers in a supportive and empowering environment.

The YMCA of South Palm Beach County offers a variety of Parkinson’s health and wellness programs, some running for over 15 years. Through classes like Surf ‘n Turf, Dance, and Cycle, participants build strength, flexibility, and confidence while staying mentally engaged and socially connected in a supportive community.

What began as a simple YMCA yoga class blossomed into a powerful community of women offering support, connection, and friendship through the challenges of the pandemic. From post-class coffee chats to socially distanced meetups, they shared stories, cultures, recipes, and encouragement—turning uncertain times into a meaningful bond that nourished them spiritually, emotionally, and beyond.
