MemberSpotlight
Fran Gilroy
JULY 2025 YMCA of the Northern Sky | ymcanorthernsky.org/foreverwell
Fran has been a member of the YMCA for over 7 years. She joined the YMCA after moving to Fargo to be closer to her family. Since joining the YMCA Fran has built many friendships, attended ForverWell Events and looks forward to excercising here. The YMCA has provided her with a place to attend classes, lift weights, and socialize with friends.
Fran loves participating in SilverSneakers classes, attending three times a week. She knows that the more she engages in these classes, the stronger she feels. When she misses out on class, she can tell the difference! On lovely days, you'll find her walking outside, soaking up the fresh air. What brings her back to the YMCA is the chance to connect with others and improve her overall well-being.
When Fran is not at the YMCA, she enjoys cooking, spending time with her grandkids, and thrift shopping. The YMCA has not only helped her build strength but also be there for her family and community.
Fran's heart for giving back is evident in her active role within the community. She regularly volunteers to support those in need, embodying the spirit of social responsibility that the YMCA holds dear.
The Y is proud to offer a Senior Meal Program and Mini Pantries as part of our outreach efforts. The Senior Meal Program is a free-will donation lunch program for participants aged 60 and above and their spouses of any age. Please register in advance by requesting a registration form from either our meal staff during lunch or at our Member Services Desk. The Y also hosts six local Mini Pantries that allow our community members to take what they need and leave what they can, including nonperishable food items.
