All pre-registered families must be present to pick up toys at their assigned time between 8am – 1pm on December 19th at the Indiana State Fairgrounds Champions Pavilion, 1202 E. 38th Street. To maintain social distancing, families are assigned a pick-up time block. Please do NOT arrive more than 30 minutes prior to your scheduled pick-up time – All pre-registered families will be served. The adult parent/guardian who registered the family for toy assistance must be present and show government issued photo ID, and is the only person allowed to pick up the toys on the event day. Please print out and bring registration confirmation receipt, proof of residence (i.e. lease, utility bill, etc.), and verification that you are the legal guardian of all children registered and listed in the household (i.e. birth certificate for each child registered which includes the name of the adult who registered, copy of 2018 or 2019 1040 tax return that lists both the adult and child names, or a court document that shows you are the legal guardian of the child.)

From 2020:

YMCA Good Friday Breakfast Attendee,

We are in unprecedented times. In light of the threat posed by COVID-19 (coronavirus), the YMCA is taking some extraordinary measures to ensure the health and safety of our members, our program participants, our YMCA staff and our community.

Therefore, following guidance from health officials and state and local community leaders, we have decided to cancel the YMCA Good Friday Breakfast.   

We are disappointed, but remain extremely thankful for your continued support of the YMCA Mission and this annual event. We appreciate your understanding, and ask that you pray for the YMCA of Greater Indianapolis as we navigate through this challenging season.

P.S.  We are already planning and praying for next year’s event!

Actively living out the “C” in the YMCA,

– Josh
