Formerly our Strong Kids Fundraising Dinner, our “Community Strong” mission has always been to raise financial assistance for our kids and families at the Y. Today 1 out of 5 participants at the North Suburban YMCA receive financial assistance and this event raises about 50% of our $500,000 in scholarship needs for the year. Since 2020, we have decided to rebrand this event so that our fundraising can also cover much-needed funds to keep our Y strong for the future.
The last 17 years, this dinner has raised over $4 million helping approximately 2700 families every year. This guest list will be invite-only which will include private donors, members, community leaders, corporate executives: the “who’s who” of the north shore.
