Double the Impact Makes a Difference at the Sussex Family YMCA

Rehoboth Beach, DE- Thanks to a matching donation of $5,000, the Sussex Family YMCA doubled the impact of their spring fundraising efforts. The Meoli Company recently presented a check to the Sussex Family, matching community gifts that were made to their Annual Campaign April 1st through June 1, 2019.

“We had an overwhelming response from the community, and we are so grateful to the Meoli Company for their support. Their generosity will provide resources to sustain our programs and services,” Hopkins said.

The YMCA’s annual campaign helps ensure Delawareans have access to programs and activities at branches like the one in Sussex County. Childhood education, fitness, health, water safety, and teen enrichment programs are just some of the services rendered thanks to the generous support of donors like the Meoli Company, individual members, and supporters.
