YMCA Launches Discounts for Foster Families
Family Support Services Duval and Nassau Counties (FSS) and the First Coast YMCA have partnered to offer new support for foster families across the First Coast. In the first-of-its-kind program, First Coast YMCA will be providing foster families with discounted memberships. FSS will be sending Foster Parent Partnership e-cards to more than 600 foster families licensed with the agency in Duval and Nassau counties.
Families simply need to show their Foster Parent Partnership e-card at any First Coast YMCA branch in Duval or Nassau County to receive the special discount. Cards are valid for six months and will be renewed to families that keep their licensure in good standing.
“Family Support Services and the First Coast YMCA are aligned in our missions to support our First Coast families and build stronger communities,” says Leigh Ann Luttrell, Community Engagement Manager for FSS. “We’re thankful for this opportunity to provide our families a new network for fun, health and connection through this ongoing friendship with the Y.”
“Everything we do is grounded in meeting the unique needs of the individuals and communities we serve – and we can’t do it alone. Partners with like-minded values and goals, like Family Support Services, help us increase access and involvement so more people can reach their potential and thrive,” said Michelle Moore, First Coast YMCA Chief Membership and Marketing Officer.
The First Coast has nearly 1,000 children in its foster care system.
