QUESTIONS?

WILL YOU HAVE THE DREAM HOUSE AGAIN?

Planning for the Dream House starts just as the project before it finishes up, so a year long process. When we started conversations last year for 2023, supply chain constraints, cost to build was still pretty active within our communities, had us halt the project for an additional year.  
 
While we are hopeful to one day get back to the Dream House, we hope you see how important our mission is to serve our community and never turn anyone away at the Y because of their inability to pay. The best way to do this right now is to take your chances at winning the 2023 Chevy Malibu LT by purchasing tickets on our website.
 

HOW DOES THE DREAM CAR SUPPORT THE LAKE COUNTY Y?

The YMCA is hopeful to raise $250,000 through online ticket sales.  All proceeds will go right back into supporting Lake County’s most vulnerable residents.  “The Lake County YMCA is one of the area’s largest nonprofits working to better our community and we value the support of THE CHEVY NETWORK and Classic Chevrolet...,” said YMCA CEO, Dick Bennett.  “These two organizations have supported us for many years and truly understand the impact we make together in the communities we serve. We are so appreciative.”
