THE BASKET BALL

In March 2020, just one week prior to our annual Basket Ball fundraiser, our world changed forever. Not only did we have to cancel our signature event, but the Y had to close down for several weeks, as a pandemic swept the planet. For the next year, we were all met with many changes, challenges and obstacles. But your Y continued to work in service to our community, providing emergency childcare, virtual wellness   programs, food distribution and more, as we rose to the occasion of meeting the needs of our friends and neighbors. In a time when our health was more important than ever, your Y made sure to keep valuable access to information and resources available to all. 

We invite you to celebrate our successes with us at this fun, festive, sporty soiree, benefiting the youth, seniors and families in our community. Every dollar raised at this event is returned to the participants of our programs, in the form of wellness activities and services. Just like all other businesses, your Y was strapped for resources in 2020, so your support is even more critical, as we continue to increase our outreach and grow our opportunities in 2021. When you attend the Basket Ball, you can ensure your Y can keep offering over $360,000 in membership assistance, childcare scholarships, senior social groups, family food boxes, cancer survivor sessions and so on, to more than 2,800 individuals each year. 

So please join us as a sponsor for our annual Basket Ball fundraiser. This year, in the interest of safety, social responsibility and especially fun, the event will be held as an bougie backyard BBQ with a DJ, photo booth, mascots, yard games, party food, breweries, auctions and a whole lot more. Sport your favorite team colors, pull up some picnic benches and be sure to be there for a delightful evening of great food and good fun for a fabulous cause. We look forward to seeing you at the Basket Ball!
