2020 YMCA Essay Contest
As part of our commitment to engage more youth and inspire future leaders, we invited high school students from greater Monmouth County to participate in an essay contest. Two essays were selected as grand prize winners. Congratulations to Maya Gerke of Freehold Township High School and Nghi Nguyen of Raritan High School, who will each receive a $1,000 scholarship for their education generously donated by Hackensack Meridian Health and New Jersey Natural Gas, as well as a full-year youth membership to a YMCA of Greater Monmouth County branch of their choice. Both will read their winning essays at our event.
