Hi Welcome Home Veterans and Friends,
Thank you again for your support of our annual fundraising event. The evening was magical and the impact we’re making in the Mooresville community is unforgettable. Your generosity is providing YMCA access for those who need us most. To see the kids and families here at the Y, summer camp is a blast, the little learners at Y Readers over at Park View and free swim lessons at War Memorial to name a few – it’s awesome and possible because of YOU.
Please enjoy the video of our amazing night filled with community and fireworks.
Thanks again and wishing you all the best!
