Making a Difference: Chris Paul Family Foundation + Feed the Children Provide Essentials to 200 Midwest City Y Families 

The YMCA of Greater Oklahoma City was honored to partner with the Chris Paul Family Foundation and Feed the Children to bring hope, connection, and care to families across our community this holiday season. 

The event, held at the Midwest City YMCA, showcased community collaboration at its finest. Together, volunteers and partners hosted a Resource Rally that provided food, hygiene items, and other essentials to 200 families in the Oklahoma City area through a drive-through distribution event. 

Each family received a 25-pound food box filled with shelf-stable items like canned vegetables, soup, pasta, cereal, and peanut butter, along with a 15-pound essentials box containing hygiene items such as shampoo, laundry detergent, deodorant, toothpaste, and feminine products. In addition, families took home toys, coats, socks, and other items to help make the season a little brighter. 

This event reflected the heart of our mission to strengthen community and support our neighbors in need. Through the generosity of our partners and volunteers, families felt seen, valued, and supported.
