During the summer, with swim lessons and camp combined, our numbers double with how many kids learn to swim and be water safe.🐠 As “America’s swim instructor,” the YMCA teaches children of all ages from all backgrounds that water should be fun, not feared, if you know how to be safe around water. We provide equal opportunity for all, ensuring everyone has the tools they need to be confident in and around water. #DrowningPreventionDay

Today we mourn the passing of Jack Connors, and we also celebrate his life of service to the City of Boston. The YMCA of Greater Boston is grateful to Jack and his wife Eileen for providing lasting hope, connection and opportunity to our youth, families and individuals. His extraordinary example of empathy, wisdom, ambition, and grace will always be remembered at the Y and in so many facets of civic life in Greater Boston. He was truly dedicated to #PalacesforthePeople and ensuring the City is one of vitality, diversity, access, and opportunity for all. That gift, his gift will last forever in the enrichment of so many lives and all that walk in his footsteps which certainly drive us forward here at the Y.

As of February 2024, an estimated 22.9% of households with children are facing food insecurity. Delta Air Lines is here to help us lower that statistic.
