🎉 Celebrating 20 Years 🙌🏾

Today, we honor Brandi, whose 20 years of unwavering commitment have made her an essential part of our organization. Through every challenge and triumph, Brandi's dedication has been a guiding light, inspiring us all to strive for excellence. Her passion and hard work have shaped our community in ways that words can't fully express.

Thank you, Brandi, for being the heart and soul of our team. Here's to many more years of success together!

Today, we celebrated Diana Watson who has been an integral part of the Y mission for the past 5 years. In her time as the Chief Philanthropy Officer at the YMCA of Greenville, she has led the development team's Annual Campaign, championed Day of Giving, and founded the Y Food Program. Her impact on the Greenville community will be felt for years to come and we are so grateful for the time that she served with us. We wish her luck in her next endeavors!

That's a wrap! Lots of hugs and tears later, it was time for our campers and counselors to say goodbye. We have loved every crazy and fun-filled moment of this summer and cannot say thank you enough to the incredible counselors and staff that made this summer magical and full of adventure for these kids. We love you!❤️

It is the last day of day camp🥺 and we are going to miss all the crazy kids that filled our halls this summer. YMCA Judson Community Center made so many great memories this summer and is ready to make more as the school year begins❤️

YMCA Judson Community Center has been at Eden Farms this week! The incredible staff and beautiful horses have been showing them the ropes of barn life as the kids take the reins and go for a ride! 🐎🤠 Thank you to the staff and donors that made this amazing experience possible!

Just 2 more days left of day camp! How the summer has flown by! Thank you to all of the staff and parents who made this summer shine🤩☀️ at places like Caine Halter Family YMCA !!

We are proud to share that Teresa Collins, assistant aquatics program director for the Caine Halter Family YMCA was honored with the Red Cross Life Saving Award Certificate of Merit by the American Red Cross of South Carolina. It is the most prestigious lifesaving award conferred by the Red Cross and is signed by the president of the United States. The Certificate of Merit is given to individuals who save or sustain a life using skills learned in a Red Cross Training Services course.
Teresa was nominated for this award after she witnessed and responded to an accident involving a 4-wheeler and an ATV and provided life-saving care to an individual with severe injuries including a broken pelvis and broken leg. We are extremely proud to have Teresa on our team and grateful she had the right training and was in the right place to save a life. Teresa recommends that everyone receive Red Cross CPR and First Aid training so that they, too, can be prepared to save a life.
