We are thrilled to announce a $1.8 million investment secured by Congressman Zach Nunn for the Walnut Creek YMCA. On Monday, Rep. Nunn joined us to announce the federal investment, which will improve the health and wellness of our community, enhance the safety of our facility, and significantly elevate our services to children, families, and seniors throughout Des Moines. Rep. Nunn secured $1,808,000 through the community project funding process, which allows members to designate funding for critical initiatives. This investment will fund essential renovations to the entrance and main lobby, relocate the front offices to develop a multipurpose space, and expand the YMCA’s youth development programming. As a result, we look forward to strengthening our ability to provide a place of belonging for all in our community. We are immensely grateful for Rep. Nunn’s leadership and advocacy in securing federal funding for these vital renovations!
