YMCA of the Jersey Shore Opens its Door to All During "Welcoming Week," Sept. 13-20
Be our guest during Welcoming Week, Sept. 13-20 to celebrate what unites us.
We know communities are stronger and more cohesive when people from all backgrounds have the opportunity to get to know one another and work side by side to advance the common good. Welcoming Week is a national celebration that brings all people together at community-based events to promote cross-cultural understanding and raise awareness of the benefits of welcoming everyone!
Visit Y locations in Old Bridge, Red Bank, Freehold and Bayshore Family Success Center in Leonardo for activities that connect community and celebrate our commitment to welcoming all.
