“The YMCA takes a wholistic approach to prioritizing physical, personal and spiritual health in the community. This wholistic approach creates generational change.

“The YMCA offers the opportunity to serve my community and has a physical fitness & sports component which aligns with one of my passions. Advancing the Y’s goals and growth will provide more communities and individuals the opportunity to achieve fitness goals. I hope I have a small hand in continuing the mission and providing an outlet for more Hoosiers.”

 

Eric Cole:
