WESTFIELD AREA Y RECEIVES GRANT FROM THE NORTHFIELD BANK FOUNDATION FOR A CHILD CARE CLASSROOM RENOVATION

Recently, the Westfield Area Y received a generous check in the amount of $7,500 from the Northfield Bank Foundation to support a child care classroom renovation at the Main Y located at 220 Clark Street in Westfield.

The Y is committed to providing children of all abilities and economic backgrounds with safe and stimulating programs in our child care classrooms and is extremely grateful for Northfield Bank Foundation’s generous contribution. Their support will help modernize and enhance a classroom with painting, molding and cabinetry and improve accessibility with height- and age- appropriate sinks, countertops and shelves.

With a commitment to nurturing the potential of kids, promoting healthy living and fostering a sense of social responsibility, the Y ensures that every individual has access to the essentials needed to learn, grow and thrive.

The Y is the nation’s leading nonprofit committed to strengthening communities through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Visit www.westfieldynj.org to learn more about Westfield Area Y programs. Financial assistance is available for those who qualify.
