YES Prep Schools Makes a Generous Contribution to the Refugees of YMCA International Services 
 

In a very generous act of kindness, YES Prep Schools donated six laptop computers to YMCA International Services. A drawing was held for the refugees YMCA serves, and there was great excitement surrounding the event. Over 200 people put their names in for consideration. After the drawing, six very lucky and happy families became the proud new owners of a resource to further their educations and lives.

The YMCA thanks YES Prep Schools for changing peoples lives through education, technology, and generosity!
