The YMCA of Metro North Road Race Series raises funds for a variety of charitable activities that benefit our community. Participants in our four unique 5K races run or walk to support the YMCA of Metro North Annual Fund and raise money to provide access to YMCA child care, camp, and health and wellness programs for everyone. In 2024, the YMCA of Metro North provided more than $2.4 million in financial aid to provide opportunities for all children, adults, and families to develop a healthy spirit, mind, and body regardless of income.
