A huge thank you to the Deloitte team for spending their National Impact Day with the YMCA of Greater Charlotte. 💙
Last week, their volunteers rolled up their sleeves at one of our program centers and made a lasting impact by removing bamboo, painting picnic tables, spreading mulch, digging irrigation lines, and building new garden beds.
Because of their hard work and dedication to service, this space is even more welcoming and beautiful for the children, families, and community members we serve.
