YMCA of Greater Kansas City – Cheers for Challenger

The 13th annual Cheers for Challenger was held in the Tower Club at Arrowhead Stadium. More than 270 guests enjoyed drinks, delicious fare, silent and live auctions, and remarks from Challenger families during the program. Proceeds support the YMCA of Greater Kansas City’s Challenger adaptive program, which offers young people with diverse abilities the opportunity to grow stronger through adaptive sports and inclusive social activities, and help to build two new accessible baseball fields at the YMCA Challenger Sports Complex.
