TEEN VIBE NEWSLETTER SPOTLIGHT
Meet Emma Tine of Mercy High School
"I'm Emma, an active, compassionate, and unique soul who loves the outdoors while also knowing the value of a cozy couch. Normally, I would be swimming, playing golf, reading, or binge watching my favorite shows, but I wanted to take a little time to introduce myself as a writer for TEEN VIBE. Writing has always been a way for me to process everything around me mostly, because I love a good story, so why not create a few of my own to share you with! Visit our website to read the full article by Emma and 1st edition of TEEN VIBE https://www.midymca.org/single-post/teen-vibe-february-2021-issue-1 TEEN VIBE is currently recruiting additional members to cover unique topics and stories that teens may find interesting. https://bit.ly/teenVIBE

CHILL FOR CHANGE 2021 We are incredibly lucky to have the camp facility that we do. We are even more grateful for the community that supports our mission to change lives! Just over a week ago this ice covered beach transformed into a stage upon which we raised over $22,000.00 to help kids come to camp. We couldn’t have reached our highest total ever without support from Portland Parks, Portland Fire & Rescue, our sponsors PrimeSource and Hubert E. Butler Construction Co., LLC and of course our jumpers and their donors! Thanks so much, and we hope to see you again next year! Biggest fundraisers to be announced soon!

We joined the YMCA African American Resource Network's #WeWearBlack on Friday, February 26th. We acknowledge in order to dismantle systems of oppression we must work in solidarity against all forms of social inequality and oppression. We stand with all bringing awareness and action to ending systemic racism.

We are here for the community. If possible, please be here for us! This spring, when nonprofits and other organizations closed their doors to slow the spread of Covid-19, YMCAs across the country lost revenue from memberships and fees for programs that were canceled. The Northern Middlesex YMCA is currently down 2 million dollars in revenue. Now more than ever, we need your support to make sure the YMCA is able to continue to serve the community for years to come. This loss of resource has created both short and long term challenges for our organization.
During these unprecedented times, your support helps the Y continue to offer:
- safe health and wellness programming,
- childcare for working families
- food and healthy living support for the men residing at the YMCA
We are here for the community. Please be here for us.
Despite all odds, the Northern Middlesex YMCA remains dedicated to serving the needs of your community and the people in it. As a 501 (c)3 charitable non-profit, the Y needs your support to keep going. Please join us TODAY to make a difference in your community.
