Make a difference for a kid like Me

 

When the closing bell rings at the end of the day and dot coms become dot nothings, I’m still your best investment; I’m your hedge against crime, disease, poverty and despair.  I’m your best hope tomorrow and the security of this great country.  I’m the asset that builds long-term value and appreciates daily.  I’m your future secured.  Given a place to nurture my spirit and channel my energy, I could do extraordinary things when I grow up.  I might explore the uncharted…here or beyond.  Maybe I will discover a cure for cancer or advance a new technology, I might write a book or direct a movie, I might even be a legendary basketball player.  And when asked what made it all possible for me, I will reach for words of graditude, my eyes tearing up, gripping the podium firmly with both hands, I will tell them of growing up at the Y – the care and guidance I received, the friends and coaches who helped me.  Fighting back a lump in my throat, I will acknowledge you – you who had the foresight to make an investment in me when I was young.  We might never meet, So, thank you now for all that you will have done for me and the hundreds like me.  You took stock in me and in a place we need – The Dallas Pugh Gymnasium at the McGrath Family YMCA!
