KeyBank, a longtime corporate partner of the YAI Network, recently demonstrated its support of our employment programs for people with disabilities through a $20,000 donation.

“This isn’t just a donation, it is a partnership,” said Fran Reinstein, Vice President and Director of KeyBank’s Hudson Valley and Metro New York Offices.  “Our goal is to always support the kind of agency that fosters independence, provides education and workforce development, and is diverse. YAI is such a perfect fit to partner with Key Bank because of all that it does for individuals with disabilities and their families across the community.”

In December, Scott Vanderwall (second from right), Senior Vice President of Commercial Banking at KeyBank, made a special trip to YAI to personally deliver the donation, where he was impressed by the enthusiasm and dedication of YAI staff and program participants.
