Lets all do our part and come together as a community to support those in need!

The Jeep Rogers Family YMCA is looking to end 2021 by giving back to the community.  On Friday, Dec. 31 the Jeep Rogers Y will host a Food Pick-Up, Food Drive, Blood Drive, AND a Covid Vaccination Clinic!

FOOD PICK-UP
Help spread the word! If you know an individual or family who is struggling this Holiday Season, the Jeep Rogers YMCA will provide groceries on Friday, Dec. 31 from 10 am to 2 pm in the Jeep Rogers parking lot while supplies last. This is a contactless food pick-up. Just drive-up and staff will place bagged groceries in the vehicle. 

A big thanks to our event Sponsor CAHEC Foundation for making this possible.

FOOD DRIVE
The Jeep Rogers Y is also collecting food between now and Dec. 31 to benefit the Christian Assistance Bridge. Please drop donations off in the Lobby.  A list of needed food and wellness items can we found on their website – christianassistancebridge.com.

BLOOD DRIVE
Blood levels are at an all time low!  Please consider signing up to give blood. The Blood Connections Mobile will be onsite from 9 am to 2 pm. Please scan the QR Code or click here to make an appointment. Use code 34JR. 

Please note: Whole Blood can be donated every 56 days. Donors must be 16 or older to donate.
