Susan Kelly's story at the Y began when she moved to Rhode Island. 👋

What struck her first was who was in the building.

"What I was struck with immediately was the range in ages of people who go to the Y, but also people who work at the Y. It has such a community feel."

People from every part of the community. Different ages, different backgrounds, in the same place at the same time.

Susan knows names now. She says hello. And when someone is having a day where they'd rather stay home, she tells them anything is better than nothing. ✨

The encouragement gets passed from one person to the next.

Your gift helps keep the doors open to a place where people of every age and every background find each other.

Chris Spiegel wanted his son Myles to have opportunities to build meaningful relationships as he grew up. ♟️

Myles is on the autism spectrum, and sports weren't the path that fit him best.

At the Y, he found chess, stop motion, and Magic: The Gathering. Those programs leaned into his strengths and gave him new ways to connect with his peers. 🃏

"No matter where our children are, they're going to be able to form meaningful connections with their peers."

Your gift can help another child find programs where their strengths have room to grow. 🌱

After years away from sports, Hannah Little remembered how much she loved swimming. 🏊

Coming back was hard at first. At the Y, she found instructors who paid attention, offered adjustments, and helped her discover how much she could do. 💪

Then she started seeing the same faces every time she came in.

"Just knowing that we're all kind of here doing it together, it feels less lonely."

What began as getting moving again became a familiar part of her week, surrounded by people she recognized.

Your gift can help someone else find that support when they're ready to try again. 🌊
