Y appeals to community to meet Matching Gift Challenge, May 12-17

NovaCare Rehabilitation and GMG Insurance have pledged to match every donation given to Central Bucks Family YMCA during the week of May 12 through 17, 2014 up to a total of $8,000 to cap the final week of their Annual Campaign.

“Our goal is to serve everyone in our community, regardless of their financial need and we can’t do that without help,” said Zane Moore, President/CEO at CBFYMCA. “These community-minded businesses have given us an invaluable opportunity. Please help us to make the most of it.”

The Y is aiming to raise the $8,000 during that week to maximize the matching donations.  All donations to the Y support their community outreach programs including financial assistance, THRIVE (cancer wellness), 7th grade initiative, Ability (special needs) and more.

Donations received May 12-15 will be matched by NovaCare Rehabilitation, with locations in Doylestown, North Wales, Horsham, and Lansdale, up to $5000. Contributions received May 16 & 17 will be matched by GMG Insurance Agency of Newtown, PA up to a total of $3000.

Those considering a donation or seeking to increase their contribution to the Y are urged to make the donation during the May 12-17 timeframe.  Donations are accepted on their website at cbfymca.org/online-giving  or by calling Cheryl Brubaker, their senior director of development at 215.348.8131, x1116.
