Giving for the local YMCA's Partner with Youth Campaign, an initiative that raises funds to underwrite fees so that less fortunate families and individuals may enjoy the facility and programming, is closing in on the final days of the fund drive.
According to Whitley County Family YMCA executive director Erica Miller, the staff and YMCA board of directors have currently achieved 65% of their fundraising goal, having raised about $17,000 of the $25,000 they are hoping to collect.
"We are going to finish the campaign strong with only 11 days left," Miller said Friday.
