Beans for Bags: YMCA Jefferson County

The YMCA of Jefferson County is excited to be working with our dynamic team of staff and volunteers to make sure youth in this county have healthy meals and learning opportunities to keep their brains active through the summer. Staff and volunteers served over 3,500 amazing healthy meals at 6 sites throughout the county last year, and we are excited to continue to grow this program as we help fight childhood hunger.
