On Saturday, September 27, 2014, Mercedes-Benz of Nashville sponsored the 3rd
annual Mercedes-Benz of Nashville Tennis Classic held at the Maryland Farms
YMCA, benefiting the YMCA Community Action Program (YCAP). Mercedes-Benz of
Nashville hosted an event that Friday night with a silent auction to raise
funds for the program as well.
Y-CAP is an outreach program that serves teens (ages 12-18)
of Williamson County, TN by offering dynamic opportunities to grow in Spirit,
Mind, and Body. They believe that every young person deserves the opportunity
to learn, grow, and thrive. Their mission is to offer new opportunities
for teens through artistic exploration, volunteerism, teambuilding, goal
setting, relationship building, and life skills development. The program and
curriculum is intentionally developed to teach participants to value three
areas of focus: Healthy Living, Youth Development, and Social
Responsibility. From goal setting to an honest assessment of gifts and
skills, Y-CAP helps students discover where they want to be as skilled
professionals in the future. They believe every person has the ability to grow
each day. This requires discipline, independent living skills, vision and life
enabling strategies.
