Program Guide
NEW BRITAIN-BERLIN YMCA
THE SEASON OF
GIVING...
What if all the Black Friday money we spent
on dollar store garland and low-end
electronics went somewhere different this
year? What if we took just a small portion of
that cash and used it to help people in need?
What if the next time you came to the Y, you
knew that family playing basketball was
only here because your gift made it
possible? Maybe your holiday season would
feel extra special this year.

We’re more than a gym. We’re a cause.
