YMCA Neighbor-to-Neighbor Program
The YMCA of Greater St. Petersburg's Neighbor-to-Neighbor Christmas program provides a traditional Christmas to more than 400 families suffering financial hardship. Families that are sponsored through our program receive a tree with decorations, Christmas dinner, a bible and toys for the children. This is all made possible by donations from local businesses and community members, but also could not be done without the help of volunteers. The program includes two major events, Tree Delivery Day and Toy Box Night. On Tree Delivery Day, volunteers gather to deliver Christmas trees & decorations to the sponsored families. It is a wonderful and rewarding experience to be able to see the look on a recipient's face when the tree is delivered! On Toy Box Night, the YMCA closes early and is turned into Santa's Toyshop! Recipients come, and with the help of our cherished elves (our volunteers), select toys for their children. This night is a wonderful community event.
YMCA Businesses Building A Better Community Luncheon
Business leaders from throughout St. Petersburg attend the YMCA Businesses Building A Better Community Luncheon not only for a great networking opportunity but to also hear a fellow business leader speak on growing a business through outstanding leadership and vision. The luncheon, which is typically held in April, focuses on the important roles that corporate giving and philanthropy play in strengthening communities. Proceeds from the YMCA Businesses Building A Better Community Luncheon will benefit community leaders by funding programs that enrich the lives of children and their families through academic support, cultural arts, health and wellness, and computer literacy.
