Marielle’s Story: Building Community, One Step at a Time
Meet Marielle Gauthier!
Marielle has been part of the Fitness on 25th community since 1993. She joined while looking for a gym that felt welcoming and meaningful. She was drawn to the idea of a community space rooted in shared values and a mission that supports people beyond just fitness. What she found at YWCA Saskatoon was exactly that.
Over the years, Marielle has stayed connected to YWCA Saskatoon because of the strong sense of community and purpose. It feels like family to her. The organization’s focus on mentorship and its commitment to helping others through challenging times reflect what she believes in. For Marielle, the YWCA is a place where people can find comfort, support, and the opportunity to move forward in life.
She wants others to know about the incredible work YWCA Saskatoon does. Many people may not be aware of the range of programs and the impact they have on the community. Marielle encourages anyone who is unfamiliar to visit and see the work firsthand.
This year, Marielle became the top fundraiser for the Y Race. Her motivation came from wanting to support Fitness on 25th directly, to help raise awareness, and to contribute to reaching YWCA Saskatoon’s donor goal. It was also a chance to work toward a personal challenge. She has her sights set on joining a HYROX race one day and saw the Y Race as a step in that direction.
We are thankful for Marielle’s dedication and continued support. Her generosity and belief in the power of community inspire us all.
