215,565 meals!

This week, we crossed a milestone we've been working toward all summer: more than 200,000 meals served.

In Week 8 alone, our YMCA of East Tennessee Summer Meal Program provided 24,557 meals, bringing our summer total to an incredible 215,565 meals.

We're not celebrating a number. We're celebrating 215,565 moments of relief.

Moments when a parent didn't have to wonder how they were going to feed their child that day. Moments when kids had a nutritious meal to fuel their play, learning, and growth. Moments when families could gather around the table knowing there was enough.

To every volunteer, staff member, partner, donor, and family who has been part of this journey: thank you. Together, we're making sure that when school is out, food doesn't have to be.

It's not too late to volunteer and be a part of this incredible program in our community! These last few weeks of summer are when volunteers are needed the most. Choose a location, choose a day and time, and show up for local families!
