A Place of Opportunity: Luckner's Story

I’m from Haiti and moved to New York City in 2017. I came to the YMCA in March 2018 to learn English. I left my country, but I didn’t finish my education. Learning English gives me more opportunities. I can go to university again, and find a good job in America.

Longtime Y Member Finds Community and Fellowship at the Y

I’m 91 and exercise has always been central in my life, since I was young. I take aqua aerobics with a group of 20 women. The majority of us are seniors, and we’ve all become close friends. We’re dedicated, devoted, and determined. And I feel more vigorous and have more energy because of the YMCA.
