LOGANSPORT – In the spirit of bringing Cass County together, the Cass County Family YMCA is excited to announce the launch of a new social media campaign, #SelfieWithSomeoneNew, aimed at bringing individuals and communities together in service of a better us. Inspired by the Y’s “Us” national advertising campaign, #SelfieWithSomeoneNew is an opportunity to highlight how the Y uniquely brings people together.
In these divided times, we must continue to bring people together, find common ground and bridge divides. Here in Cass County, the Y knows that this can start with something as simple as striking up a conversation with someone you’ve just met.
This October, the Y is encouraging community members to meet someone new, strike up a conversation and discover what they have in common. Then, take a selfie and post it to Facebook, Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #SelfieWithSomeoneNew and tagging @YMCA. Whether it’s a new neighbor down the street, a parent your child’s school or a person you see every day on your commute home the Y hopes people will take a few extra moments to get to know one another in order to build a stronger, more connected community.
“Every day at the Y, we see people of different backgrounds who normally wouldn’t have met, come together, and that is the inspiration for #SelfieWithSomeoneNew,” said Brandy Kizer, Membership/Marketing Director for the Cass County Family Y. “Small steps lead to meaningful, lasting change and the Y wants to challenge our community to help build a better us and show that our differences are a source of strength that benefits our community.”
Some of the programs and services this month that the Y is offering in service of a better us include:
· Fall Break Camp – October 12th-20th
· Kids Art Camp – October 2nd-20th
· Food Drive for Emmaus – October 15th-31st
