MYP Community Service Project - April 6, 2026 - Pace Center for Girls Duck Slap

Description

MYP is partnering with Pace Center for Girls for a hands-on service project supporting their largest fundraiser of the year, the Lucky Ducky Race for Pace. This beloved community event sends more than 30,000 rubber ducks floating down the Manatee River to raise funds that directly support local girls.

MYP members will help prepare for race day by tagging ducks with their race numbers. It's an easy, fun way to make a big impact together. Enjoy an evening of service, socializing, and teamwork while supporting an organization making a lasting difference in our community.
