While the YMCA of the Palm Beaches’ Thanksgiving celebration looked different this year, one thing looked very much the same…giving back to its community.  The YMCA of the Palm Beaches in partnership with Wellington Hospitality and Dedicated Senior Medical Center recently hosted its annual “Home Away From Home” Thanksgiving lunch for 100 local seniors who otherwise would have been alone this holiday.  The spatially-distant celebration, with extensive safety protocols in place included a boxed holiday meal with turkey and all the fixings.  Guests were greeted by Tim Coffield, CEO and President of the YMCA of the Palm Beaches and “The Y” team.  “The Y” also celebrated the 100th birthday of one of its long-time members, Helen Muller, by hosting a drive-by celebration complete with a personalized banner, cake, balloons and traditional Thanksgiving meal.
