YMCA of Metropolitan Chicago reposted this
Yesterday was a day of impact! 70 Allstate changemakers made a significant, positive difference in the lives of teachers and students in need. In partnership with the YMCA of Metropolitan Chicago... • 420 teachers across #Chicago will receive classroom supplies and #NotesofInspiration. All of these were built in just ONE HOUR! 🤯👏🏽 • More than 12,500 students will receive activity books, developed in collaboration between The Allstate Foundation and TIME for Kids. ✏️ A huge thank you to each and every volunteer and partner that made this possible, because together, we're empowering our teachers and securing a brighter future for our students. ♥️ #Allstate #Back2SchoolAmerica #YMCA #Chicago #TeachersMatter #TeacherClassroomKit #Education

Our best fitness friends!! 👏🎉🏋️♀️
We were honored to accept the YMCA of Metropolitan Chicago's Social Innovation award at their annual recognition dinner earlier this month. The Peloton for Business team had the best time at the beautiful Rauner Family YMCA celebrating our partnership and all that the YMCA of Metro Chicago has accomplished this past year. We're always inspired by the power of the Y Chicago community and the incredible support for Y members from changemakers across Chicago and beyond.
