Last week’s 4th Annual Corporate Cup Challenge was one for the books!

Together, our teams, sponsors, donors, and volunteers helped raise more than $75,000 for YMCA scholarships, helping us give more access across our community.

Congratulations to our Overall Champions, Busey, and our Fundraising Champions, Broeren Russo, who raised more than $14,000, the most ever raised by a team in Corporate Cup history!

Thank you to all of our participating teams and everyone who helped make this event possible. There’s truly no place like this place.
