On Saturday, April 21st, the Y’s Healthy Kids Day and art contest will bring together thousands of kids for a fun celebration that will also focus attention on a serious issue.  

YMCAs across the country will be celebrating Healthy Kids’ Day with programs ranging from fun events to art contests to open houses.

New this year at the Y’s Healthy Kids Day celebration, to help raise awareness about the year-round epidemic of child hunger and highlight the importance of good nutrition, the Y and Walmart Foundation are kicking off a national call for youth art submissions as part of the Y’s ‘Child Hunger Is No Fairytale’ campaign.
