 Why the Y?

 
 

Get Involved Today

People just like you are helping make our community a better place through the YMCA. By giving your time, you join seven generations of visionary citizens who have helped the YMCA to address our community's evolving needs. 

With a variety of programs and locations, both one-time and ongoing opportunities, there is something for every volunteer interest at the Y.

  • Y Guides
  • Skill-building classes
  • Special events
  • Black Achievers
 
Healthy Living
Y volunteers provide support, resources and guidance to kids, adults and families so they can achieve greater health and well-being in spirit, mind and body. Opportunities include:
  • Personal training
  • Group exercise classes
  • Teaching or assisting in classes
  • Meeting one-on-one with members
  • Leading workshops
  • Supporting community events like Healthy Kids Day
  • Welcoming and serving Y members and participants 
 
Social Responsibility
Volunteers help the Y listen and respond to our region’s most critical social needs.  They help inspire compassion and involvement in our community by: 
  • Serving as board members at their local Ys
  • Fundraising in the Y’s Partners With Youth annual campaign

  • Helping to coordinate volunteerism activities
