On April 8, the Y graduated another class of THRIVE Cancer Wellness Pathway program participants! Because of the love and generosity of donors and Cause members, since 2012 over 500 have graduated from THRIVE.
"I am a four time Cancer Survivor and it was great to connect with others that are doing great surviving. Thank you for the opportunity to meet and continue my own battle with the wonderful people in my group."(THRIVE Cancer Wellness Pathway graduate)
“I signed up for THRIVE as part of my weekly exercise routine. Jennifer introduced me to all different forms of exercise I had not considered. I was used to working out on machines and free weights, but THRIVE opened me up to chair yoga, treadmill running, and balance training. I had been missing these, and they are important for my age. My cancer has been in remission for 18 years, and now I have more stamina, and overall body feel. Not to mention I’ve enjoyed the heck out of it!” (YMCA THRIVE Cancer Wellness graduate)
Congratulations to our THRIVE Cancer Wellness Pathway graduates, and to Jennifer Gaj, our THRIVE program coordinator!
