Ocean Community YMCA
Our Proud HistoryEvery day our Association strives to serve our community with valuable programs promoting healthy living for individuals, families and children. The Westerly-Pawcatuck branch was founded in 1928 on its current site next to Wilcox Park in Westerly, RI. The branch saw many expansions through the years. With the turn of the new millennium, the Association opened the Arcadia branch to serve the Chariho region of Rhode Island and, in 2003, the Mystic branch grew out of a venture with the Mystic Community Center. Today the Ocean Community YMCA’s service area spans a geographic region that includes most of southeastern CT and south county Rhode Island. |

Shelter Box - via Zoom
ShelterBox is an international disaster relief charity established in 2000 in Helston, Cornwall, UK, that provides emergency shelter and other aid items to families around the world who have lost their homes to disaster or conflict. ShelterBox responds to natural disasters such as earthquakes,[1] tropical cyclones,[2] tsunamis,[3] floods[4] and volcanic eruptions.[5] The charity also provides emergency aid to families who have been displaced by war or conflict, in places such as Syria and the Lake Chad Basin.[6] Typical ShelterBox aid items include tents as temporary shelter or shelter kits to allow people to build or rebuild durable shelters. ShelterBox also provides other aid items such as mosquito nets, water filters, water carriers, solar lights, cooking sets, blankets and mats. A sturdy green box packed with the necessary aid items is often provided to families in places where ShelterBox responds. The aid provided by ShelterBox is tailored to the nature of each individual disaster and location and therefore it is not always the same. ShelterBox Response Teams distribute aid on the ground, working closely with local organisations, local and international aid agencies and Rotary Clubs worldwide. |
