2012 YMCA Strong Kids Month in Prince George:
February 15 - March 15, 2012
About YMCA Strong Kids Campaign
The YMCA is a leading Canadian charity. 2012 marks the second year of our Strong Kids campaign and this year promises to be awesome!
Our staff and volunteers have set a goal of raising $10,250 sending sixty under-privileged children to Camp Kanannaq this summer. All proceeds stay in Prince George.
YMCA staff are organizing several fun events to raise funds and awareness so come out and show your support! Everyone who participates gets entered into the draw to win a three month membership.
