Middlesex United Way

We're proud to partner with Middlesex United Way, one of the many supporters helping us keep our doors open to families in need of childcare at our Middlesex YMCA Kids' Korner program. 💙🏠 Thanks to their donation, we can continue offering financial assistance for before & after-school childcare to households earning up to $100,000. Together, we're making the Y a welcoming home for more families in our community!
