YMCA fall fitness fundraiser

YMCA fundraiser

The YMCA of Greater Boston will be hosting a fitness and community building event from October 16 to October 24. The event, dubbed Together We Move, will include 20 activities for participants to reconnect with both their physical wellness goals, as well as each other. Among the activities are various in-person 5K races across towns and neighborhoods, mini triathlons, yoga, and virtual 5K races. The final in-person race will take place on Sunday October 24, with registration open until Friday October 22 at 3PM.

“We’re hosting events across greater Boston where neighbors can meet up and become active for a good cause.” stated Patricia Barnwell, Senior Executive Director at the YMCA of Greater Boston, in their October 14 press release. “The Y is a natural community-builder and in-person connections are so important as we move through the pandemic.”

Together We Move is a fundraising opportunity for the YMCA, which will allow them to continue serving their community and members as they have been for over 170 years. The main sponsor of Together We Move is property developers Corcoran Jennison Companies.
