When we engaged R.H. White to renovate two of our YMCA facilities – one in downtown Worcester and one in the Greendale area – we hoped that the refreshed exteriors and new spaces for programs and services would attract new customers.

Both the great new look – and the response from our members exceeded our expectations. In just a few months after the renovation, we exceeded our membership targets for the year.
