YMCA Giving Campaign

Did you know that we have a YMCA before/after school site on our campus?  This means that our Robo Griffins directly benefit from the South Bay YMCA program!  Because of this, we want to support the YMCA giving campaign.  There are two ways to support the YMCA fundraising:

  1. You can make a donation to our school fundraising page in just seconds by clicking this link: Camarena Elementary 2024’s fundraising page for YMCA of San Diego County (classy.org)
  2. Look for loose change around the house and bring it to your child’s classroom teacher!  Each classroom will be accepting loose change.  We want to show our kids that every little bit adds up to a lot!  The class from each grade level that collects the most change will receive extra recess.

Every gift makes an incredible difference! Please feel free to share with any of your friends or family as well.

Thank you for not only supporting the efforts to raise funds for the Y, but also giving back to your community! I appreciate you!”
