The YMCA of the Foothills has been partnering with @tierradelsolfdn for over 20 years! Recently, our program has expanded to welcome associates with diverse abilities, who generously volunteer in our Learning Tree Preschool classrooms. They bring so much joy and enthusiasm as they assist with decorations, music time, and many other activities. It's truly heartwarming to see the positive impact they make on our students and teachers! #DisabilityAwarenessMonth #TierraDelSol #YMCAoftheFoothills

Monday, we had the wonderful opportunity to welcome Dr. Darneika Watson-Davis, the Superintendent of Glendale Unified School District, for an engaging tour of our YMCA afterschool enrichment programming at Mountain Avenue, Monte Vista, and Dunsmore Elementary!   It’s exciting to share how the Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELOP) empowers our enriching activities beyond school hours, positively impacting our community’s youth.

On Sunday, August 25th the YMCA of the Foothills partnered with Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA) Trainer Jim Oyos in a free, basketball clinic for elementary and middle school age athletes. The young athletes were separated into different groups, where they took part in ice-breakers and learned real-life scenarios of sportsmanship. Ultimately, they learned not to fear making mistakes on the court, to treat everyone with respect, and to understand the power of positivity. "55 families were in attendance," said Sports Director Ernesto Rafael Jr. "It was refreshing to see parents and kids enjoy the experience. At the end of the clinic, the families played some basketball, made new friends, and enjoyed this educational experience.”

In celebration of its 83rd year, the YMCA Quarterback Club was featured this week on CBS, showcasing its mission to support high school and community college football teams in the Glendale area. Through memberships and contributions, the club offers scholarships to local football players. #CollegeFootball #YMCAQuaterBackClub
