We’re Having a Flip Fest!
It feels so good to give.
Gymnasts of all ages and abilities are learning the value of philanthropy. Our annual Flip Fest is back the week of April 29. Haven’t heard of Flip Fest? Well, please get involved! All the details on this fundraiser are provided below.
Because our Gymnastics teachers believe all kids should have the opportunity to grow and learn at the Y — regardless of ability to pay — they engage the boundless energy and huge hearts of our kids in the Reach Out for Youth & Families Campaign. During the week of April 29, 2018, all our branches will be participating in Flip Fest. Note, you do not have to be enrolled in gymnastics to join the campaign and to earn some really neat prizes.
Here’s a powerful testimonial that may inspire your participation…. “The Hockomock YMCA has been a blessing to us. If it were not for all the donations we would not be able to send our children there. Even a small amount can make a difference. Please consider making a donation and spreading the word, as you too can help other children and families like us.” – A Grateful Family
7th Annual Flip Fest — QUICK FACTS & HOW TO GET INVOLVED
Ask others to support your efforts to enrich someone’s life right here in our community.
Knowing that the generosity of others is at the core of the Y’s existence as a nonprofit. It is only through the support of volunteers and donors that we are able to support and give back to those most in need.
100% of contributions raised will go to our Reach Out for Youth and Families 2018 Campaign.
You will be able to raise money based on the number of flips (or cartwheels, forward rolls, walkovers, etc.*) you do during our celebratory Flip Fest Days (week of 4/29) or you may ask for a flat donation of any dollar amount.
Once your pledge form is complete, come to the Y during class time April 29-May 6 for counting!
Non-participants in gymnastics classes may schedule their private flip count with a staff member. Please email: jonathanlerch@hockymca.org (Foxboro), amytr@hockymca.org (Franklin), or debbiemo@hockymca.org (North Attleboro).
