🌞🎶🏀 Day 2 of Summer Programming was a huge success at CityYouth Ministries! 🏀🎶🌞

Our students stayed busy learning, growing, and having fun all day long! From engaging small group activities and exciting STEM projects to basketball and music enrichment, there was something for everyone to enjoy.

A special highlight was our 3rd graders getting an introduction to the guitar with their teacher, Ms. Deven! 🎸 They loved learning about the different parts of the instrument and exploring the world of music.

We are so thankful for the amazing staff, volunteers, and supporters who make these opportunities possible for our children. Seeing our students learn new skills, build friendships, and gain confidence is what summer at CityYouth is all about!

We can’t wait to see what adventures Day 3 brings! ❤️☀️

Your support helps us continue providing a safe, encouraging environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive academically, physically, and spiritually. Because of community partners like you, we are able to make a lasting impact in the lives of the children and families we serve.
