"We live that value by providing more than $3,000,000 in financial assistance since our inception in 2000 to support our neighbors in need," organizers of the event said.
In 2018, the Foglia YMCA was able to provide financial assistance to ensure no one was turned away the center. More than 200 families were able to access the Y because of its financial assistance program.
