The Washington County Family YMCA announces a substantial five-year donation to the Washington County Family YMCA's Beth Armstrong 'Y For All' Capital Campaign.
This generous contribution reflects the company's dedication to supporting worthy causes within the community. Due to this incredible support, the Y is one step closer to building a much-needed high-quality childcare center and indoor recreation facility for our community.
The project will provide a safe, nurturing environment where children can engage in educational activities that promote cognitive, emotional, and social development. Also, provide support for working families, and promote health and wellness for individuals of all ages to stay engaged year-round. Both centers will serve as a community hub to foster social connections and a sense of belonging. Families will have the opportunity to interact, play, and participate in activities together.
Fox Purlee, the founder of Fox Purlee Wealth Management, shared his personal connection to this initiative, stating, "Growing up in Washington County and now raising my own child here, I understand the vital role the YMCA plays. At Fox Purlee Wealth Management, we believe in the power of community and the importance of investing in our youth and families. Our significant donation to the Beth Armstrong 'Y For All' Capital Campaign reflects our commitment to supporting worthy causes that strengthen our community."
While the Y hasn’t announced a timeline for the expansion project yet, the organization has raised $1.2M of the $4.0M goal. The Y board and staff are deeply grateful for the outpouring of support from individuals and businesses alike.
