Dear Friends,
Die YM&YWHA van Washington Heights & Inwood (die Y) is 'n pilaar in ons gemeenskap vir meer as 'n eeu - 'n plek waar mense van alle ouderdomme en agtergronde kan floreer. Ons voed die jongste onder ons op, voorsien maaltye en geselskap vir diegene in hul goue jare, bied verrykende aktiwiteite vir die jeug en hul gesinne, en soveel meer. Ons is trots op die top-notch dienste wat ons aan almal verskaf wat deur ons deure stap of enige van die magdom van ons offsite programme bywoon.
Ons staar nou 'n pandemie in New York in die gesig met die nuwe koronavirus (COVID 19). New York City het die openbare skoolstelsel tot Maandag na afstandsonderrig verskuif, April 20, 2020. Studente sal nie gedurende hierdie tyd by skoolgeboue aanmeld vir onderrig nie.
All of our programs are now canceled until Monday, April 20, 2020.
Prepared meals will be handed out to seniors at the front entrance through our Center for Adults Living Well. Logistics will be shared with them soon by the CALW staff.
We are exploring offering online programs to provide engaging and fun activities in which you can participate at home. Further details will be available soon.
Gedurende hierdie tyd, ons sal voortgaan met streng skoonmaak en ontsmetting. Ons is hoopvol dat ons in die nabye toekoms na ons gereelde geskeduleerde programme sal kan terugkeer, terwyl dit 'n veilige en gesonde omgewing vir almal bied.
Even when we are not physically together — under the Y’s roof — we are one community, and I am inspired by the level of care you have shown one another during this uncertain time.
Please refer to our COVID-19 resources page for information that may be useful at this time. As we receive new information, we will continue to update you.
Thank you all very much for your patience and helping us do our part to flatten the curve to curtail the disease’s spread, especially to vulnerable populations.
Wishing you all good health,
Martin G. Engelsman
Hoof Uitvoerende Beampte
