If you dropped off gear during the sports equipment drive back in July, your generosity is directly making a difference right here in our community!

Sport Central is the only provider of used sports equipment to families and organizations in the Peace Country, and community partnerships like this make a lasting impact. We’re so grateful to have organizations like Sport Central and Rosenau Transport investing in the well-being and potential of young people.

Thank you, Sport Central!🙌💙

A huge THANK YOU to Sports Central for their incredible generosity in donating skateboarding gear to the YMCA of Northern Alberta’s Youth Transitions Program in Grande Prairie, and to Rosenau Transport for generously shipping the equipment to us!
Because of your support, more youth in our community will have access to skateboarding equipment, helping remove barriers to participation while creating opportunities to build confidence, stay active, develop new skills, and connect with others.
