This project has been in the works for a long time, and we went to great lengths to find the right partnership with an independent child care operator.
We are thrilled to officially share the news with our community and announce that the YMCA is coming to the qathet region, aiming to be up and running early this fall.

Once everything is up and running, they will begin reaching out to families.
We’re very excited to welcome the YMCA into our community and look forward to working together to help more families with their child care needs.
