Breakfast of Champions for Youth

The YMCA of Reading and Berks County proudly invites you to the Breakfast of Champions for Youth, a morning dedicated to celebrating the leaders, volunteers, partners, and young people who embody the Y’s mission of strengthening community through youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. This signature event highlights the impact of our programs, the stories that inspire us, and the champions who help move our mission forward.

For more than 167 years, the YMCA of Reading and Berks County has provided vital programs that teach skills, build confidence, inspire hope, and change lives. As one of the nation’s leading nonprofits, the Y strengthens our communities through a clear focus on youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.

The strong support of our donors and partners makes it possible to offer high-quality programs for every age and stage of life, regardless of a person’s ability to pay. From early childhood through adulthood and senior years, the Y is a place for learning, connection, and community health.

For children, Y enrichment programs build confidence, provide caring role models, and teach what it means to be engaged, responsible community members. For adults and families, the Y offers opportunities for enrichment, fitness, and meaningful social connection. By evolving to meet the changing needs of Berks County, the Y remains a cornerstone of support, encouragement, and opportunity.

We are grateful for the time, talents, and generosity of our Board of Directors, volunteers, staff, and community partners. Together, we continue to make a powerful difference.
