Our community has grown significantly since we first began meeting the needs of area families more than 60 years ago. For the Sanford-Springvale Y to fulfill its mission of improving the quality of life of those who live and work in our community, we also need to expand and grow. To that end, we are excitedly undergoing phase one of an expansion project that will enable us to not only create opportunity for growth today but fulfills the expectations of our community tomorrow.
Through the generosity of our community donors, we have raised enough funds to get phase one underway! The site work is now complete and a weather-tight shell is currently being constructed, as we actively work to raise the additional $2 million needed to complete this phase.
We hope that you will partner with us in making your community a better place to live by making a tax-deductable gift to our Expansion Project. Download a pledge form today and return it to Andy Orazio.
