If you’re at a local YMCA anytime soon, keep an eye out - you might just spot our CEO! As he travels the country to connect with our member health systems, Michael J. Alkire makes it a point to start each day with a swim at the local Y. Why The Y (YMCA)? Much like the hospitals we work with, these community hubs often serve as the heartbeat of their neighborhoods, bridging the gap between rural and urban centers. Plus, the YMCA holds a special place in the world of competitive swimming, serving as the training ground where many Olympic swimmers took their first strokes. Mike’s commitment to swimming at these local Y’s goes beyond just exercise; it's a way for him to engage with community members and support the vital work these institutions do. It’s also a reminder of the vital role that these local organizations play in fostering talent and promoting health and wellness across America. So, the next time you see someone swimming laps at your local Y, it could be our CEO making a splash and connecting with the very communities we aim to support. Share your favorite YMCA moments or let us know if you spot Mike on your next visit!
