Mt Madonna Giving/CRC Campaign - Together We Can
We are proud to share our 2021 Community Impact Report for the Silicon Valley YMCA. The Mt. Madonna YMCA have been serving meals to the seniors in our community (Morgan Hill, San Martin & Gilroy) throughout the pandemic (actually they never shut down!) and offered childcare and online schooling to our essential workers children as well. With everything the pandemic has set us back, we have become stronger in our efforts to ensure that our communities have felt supported.
We haven't asked our communities to help us with campaign for three years and now we need help more than ever. We have many families that are still putting their families back together emotionally, financially, physical or all the above. We would love your help!
If you would like to help support our community, you can donate here. All donations help Gilroy, San Martin and Morgan Hill communities.
