he was part of the ymca. ymca's helped a lot in the war. they built barracks for the american soldiers. they also provided doughnuts, any kind of food supply. many division organizations such as ymca are not the only once. -- not the only ones. they tried to make life easier and better for the american soldiers fighting so far from home. >> here we have the grave of any everly, part of an evacuation hospital. this is where troops were evacuated after being wounded in battle. she actually died during the news are gone, but -- a muse

i would also like to thank the ymca for hosting us tonight and invite the ymca's new director to say a few words and i think she will introduce some of their new staff here as well. >> hi. i'm shianta lewis, director of treasure island and youth programs here. hello to the board and the community. i was asked to provide a brief update of some things that have changed. we went through some transitions last year when we lost our previous director and i knew we had some big shoes to fill. able to step in and build in all the work that we're doing on treasure island. our gym was open just to work out as well as camp programs in the summertime. we've received additional funding and we pair it with the efforts of the funding from tida to extend our hours at the gym. with the hours being open seven days a week, we currently have new programs operating. we offer youth sports programs twice throughout the week and on saturday and sunday for up to four hours on the weekends. we go 2:00 to 6:30 and extended evening programs. we offer hours for the youth 10:00 to 4:00 engaging in sports programs

we have 2700 ymcas, all through the country. and the program locations have served about 62,000 people. that may seem like a drop in the bucket. but there are 84 million americans living with prediabetes and only 10 % of them know it. so we only, it is only a drop in the bucket. we have much more work to do to be able to do that. and it's going to take a lot of organizations working together, including with health care partners with, technology, with other community-based organizations to see an impact. >> so so farthest have been up and run foorg couple of years? >> uh-huh. >> is there anything you've learned about what works or doesn't work? that's different from the pilot? and also, i mean if you're finding that basically you're having success in these programs and they're helping people and maybe you talk about what the measure of success is, but also, do you then, does it, this fact that you are kind of a drop in the bucket, does that lead you to think that maybe we need, there's cms is sort of been holding up the approval

through the ymca, we do that through a brick and mortar approach. we have 2700 ymcas all over the country. about 1100 program locations right now. those program locations have served about 62,000 people. that may seem like a drop in the bucket, it may seem impressive, but there are 84 million americans living with prediabetes and only about 10% know it. we only -- it is only a drop in the bucket. we have much more work to do to do that, and it's going to take a lot of organizations working together including with health care partners, with technology, with other community based organizations in order to see an impact. >> so so far, these have been up and running for a couple years. is there anything you have learned about sort of what works or doesn't work, you know, that's different from the pilot? and also, i mean, if you're finding that basically you're having success in these programs and they're helping people, maybe you can talk about what the measure of success is, but also, do you then -- does frankly, you are a drop in the bucket. does that

let's talk about this, that started to take the dpp from a clinical environment into the ymca setting, we use ymca trained coaches in that format, we were able to do that for a fraction of the cost and still help people prevent the onset of type ii diabetes. through the work we've been scaling for almost the last 10 years and we've done so in partnership with the cdc and other stakeholders and we look at how can we get this proven intervention out into communities. we do that through a brick-and- mortar approach, there's about 1100 program locations right now , those program locations have served about 62,000 people. that may seem like a drop in the bucket there are 84 million americans living with prediabetes and only 10% of them know it. it's only a drop in the bucket and we have more work to do but it will take a lot of organizations working together including with healthcare partners, technology, in order to see an impact . >> so far, these have been up and running for a couple years, is there anything you've learned about what works or doesn't work , that's different from the pil

tutelage so they didn't feel there was a problem there so regularly troop meetings held here at the ymcahamber of commerce or these places that would sponsor the boy scout troops and they ran their ownps troops so this is what our boys or our schools we are doing this for the broader community like the rotary club or chamber of commerce would manage these troops and then they would do camping in the summer that was extended to teach these boys civic patriotism, community engagement the scouts were everywhere if there was a big event the scouts would be there learning to contributecobu back to the community learning to serve the public these 12 and 13 -year-olds were running the first aid booth guiding and chaperoning the president quite literally and away that i don't think is quite as pervasive today but they were there right in the thick of things they were remarkable to reach out to a diverse crowd of town and urban and suburban youth especially in the twenties times of the kkk the clan was as worried about jewish and african-american so that was one end of the spectrum those that wan

i saw my father who was on the ran the local ymca, how he contributed time, energy, and intellectualacity on raising funds for the kids in a in ourrhood -- neighborhood to spend summer camp and understand the outdoors, building a sense of spirit. through my life, philanthropic endeavors were part of my family dynamic. david: you signed a giving pledge that says you will give away half of your wealth? robert: it is not hard. the folkserful that are outl and warren there being evangelists for what this is. we have to ensure that our society is a just society. we have the ability to cure our own problems. while we accumulate wealth on one hand, we have to solve the problems facing us today. part of what i think about is i know today the problems that are facing the communities i care about. to doave the capacity something about them, it is on me to do something about them. this is the right thing for anyone who accumulates wealth of any size. signing the pledge, actually caring about the community. david: you have another interesting philanthropic project. you have a ranch that you have
