Скачать или смотреть Heart of Giving Podcast: Suzanne McCormick - The Y-USA's Role in Modern America

This week, we explore how the Y-USA is adapting to serve America while staying true to its 175-year legacy. CEO Suzanne McCormick shares insights on:

• How YMCAs serve as community hubs, engaging 13 million members nationwide (5 million under age 18)
• The innovative "Team Up Project" partnering with Interfaith America, Catholic Charities USA, and Habitat for Humanity to bridge societal divides
• YMCA's response to the "epidemic of social isolation" through intentional programming and community spaces

Memorable insights:
"The Y is a partner to parents. Parents know their children are in a safe place that allows them to balance work and school schedules."

"We represent the diversity of real America within our movement... we have people who think differently but come together to work on a common mission."
