Dear Y Community,
Happy Lunar New Year, the year of the Ox.
In Chinese culture, the Ox is a valued animal because of its role in agriculture and its positive characteristics of being hardworking and honest. As we enter the year in the midst of a global pandemic, we draw strength and inspiration from the characteristics of the Ox.
Here’s a brief message to our community. Please take a moment to watch and share:
新年快乐 (Happy Lunar New Year)
In gratitude and community,
Loria Yeadon
President and CEO, YMCA of Greater Seattle
