YMCA of Greater St. Louis To Offer Free Two-Month Memberships To Those Who Have Recently Lost Their Jobs

St. Louis, MO (May 1, 2009) – To provide even greater support to families and individuals experiencing financial hardship, the YMCA of Greater St. Louis will begin offering free two-month memberships to those who have recently lost their jobs. The free memberships will be offered at all branches of the YMCA of Greater St. Louis beginning May 4 for a limited time.

“For more than 150 years, the YMCA of Greater St. Louis has responded to the needs of our community,” said Gary Schlansker, President and CEO of the YMCA of Greater St. Louis. “Especially in tough times, the YMCA provides a place to connect with others, de-stress, and be part of a supportive community.”

A commitment to employee health reaps benefits not only for your employees but also your company or organization in terms of increased productivity and decreased sick days and health insurance costs. The YMCA of Greater St. Louis has a 150-year history of partnering with local companies so that employees have increased opportunity to find support and motivation for healthy lifestyle changes. You can bring benefits like health assessments, free trial memberships and cost savings to your employees, all through the YMCA's new streamlined Corporate Wellness program. There's nothing for you to lose, and so much to gain.
