American Red Cross Blood Drive
The American Red Cross blood drive is an organized event where individuals come together to donate blood to help meet the needs of patients in hospitals and emergency situations. These drives are critical in maintaining a stable blood supply. The American Red Cross sets up a mobile blood drive here at the Y.
Little Free Library
Located outside our Y is a free book drop off and pick up Little Free Library station. While this station is small, it gives the gift of reading to a child and makes a big impact.
WaterStep Shoe Drop-off
Our Y collects shoes for WaterStep. WaterStep supports the needs of people and communities in the midst of crisis to bring control and dignity. They provide emergency relief in the wake of natural disasters, human caused disasters, and conflicts.
