Fill The Bus
What is Fill the Bus?
Fill the Bus is a YMCA Strong Kids initiative that raises awareness around the YMCA’s financial assistance program and sending children to YMCA Camp. Our goal this year is to raise $20,000, enough to send 80 local kids to camp!
How Much Is It to Put A Kid On The Bus?
A donation of $250 will add a child to the bus. Every dollar raised will help local kids through the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign!
How Can You Participate?
We encourage everyone to take part in this initiative! Here are some ways to get involved:
- Engage your place of work and promote Fill the Bus on your social media
- Local businesses can sponsor the event by pledging to send kids to camp through staff or one-time donation
- Local schools can fundraise and engage staff, students and families with hat days or pajama days
- Donate or run an outside third party special event to help raise funds in support of Fill the Bus
Stay tuned for details on our next Fill the Bus campaign!
YMCA Strong Kids Breakfast
The health and wellbeing of our members, clients, participants, families and community partners is of utmost importance to us at the YMCA. In light of the recent events related to the COVID-19 outbreak, we have made the decision to postpone the YMCA Strong Kids Breakfast in Sudbury to a later date. Please stay tuned for more information.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact your usual YMCA point of contact or visit our website for regular updates. Thank you for your understanding.
30th Annual Tim Hortons YMCA Golf Classic
This year, we welcomed over 220 golfers that were able to join us for a great day of golf, silent and live auction, and delicious food, all despite the rain!
We are thrilled to officially announce that together we raised just under $60,000, marking our most successful tournament to date for the second year in a row. This event would not have been a success without your generous support. These funds will support the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign and Tim Hortons Foundation Camps, where we support local children and families in North Bay access YMCA programming, forge new friendships and create lasting memories.
We also want to thank Sellebration Productions and BuzzMasters for donating their time and services for the event. To view photos from the tournament, please click here!
Thank you once again for your support.
