The building that will soon house the new White Rock YMCA on Gaston is starting to look a lot like a building, instead of just a bare skeleton. There has been quite a bit of progress on the structure in the last few weeks.
If you’re curious what it’ll look like when it’s finished, you can see the site plans here. Last we heard, construction is on track.
The White Rock YMCA is within 85-90 percent of its fundraising goal of $14 million, which you can track on the White Rock YMCA website.
The clock is ticking on fundraising for the White Rock YMCA, which needs to raise $2 million by January 2015. Earlier this year, it received a challenge grant from The J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation to help ease the load. If the White Rock Y is able to raise $1.5 million by January, then the Mabee Foundation will donate the last $500,000.
To help move things along, the Y launched the Click the Brick campaign. Starting at $1,500, community members can purchase a brick with their name on it. Each will receive a yard sign saying “I gave to my Y.”
