Congratulations Jim, looking forward to working with you.
We are excited to announce that James (Jim) Martin has been named the newest Chair of the Board for the YMCA of Greater Hartford. With a lifelong dedication to the Y's mission, James brings a wealth of experience as both a supporter and former board member. James' journey with the YMCA started in childhood, where he found lifelong friendships and a passion for promoting healthy minds and bodies. Now, as Chair, he's honored to lead the board and work alongside President and CEO Harold Sparrow to shape a bright future for our organization. “I have always felt a real need to give back to the Y, as I was the beneficiary of so much of what the organization has to offer as a kid. It is an honor to be chosen by my Board colleagues, for whom I have so much respect and admiration, and to chair this amazing board is truly humbling,” Mr. Martin said. “I greatly look forward to working with our fantastic President and CEO Harold Sparrow to lead our organization into a great future.” Together, James and Harold envision a YMCA that continues to be a beacon for individuals and families, offering quality education, enriching activities, and inclusive exercise programs for all. James' leadership and advocacy will undoubtedly strengthen our community and propel us forward. Join us in congratulating James Martin on this well-deserved appointment! Let's continue building a healthier, stronger Hartford together. #YMCA #CommunityLeadership #HealthyLiving
