The YMCA of Northwest North Carolina honors individuals who demonstrate exceptional volunteerism and consideration toward others with the Strong Award. Evelyn Moxley was chosen as the Yadkin Family YMCA Volunteer of the Year for her longtime commitment and exceptional work to further the YMCA mission of “Helping people reach their God-given potential in spirit, mind and body.”
Evelyn Moxley joined the Yadkin Family YMCA 18 days before it opened its doors. Nine years later, Evelyn is still an active member with a passion for the Y’s mission. Her enthusiasm is evident in all that she does, whether it’s helping secure pumpkins for the Fall Festival or helping secure funds for the Partner With Youth campaign so that all children and adults can have the opportunity of benefitting from YMCA programs or membership.
