FOR YOUTH DEVELOPMENT
NURTURING THE POTENTIAL OF EVERY CHILD AND TEEN
The Y is the starting point for many youth to learn about being active and developing healthy habits they will carry with them throughout their lives and the benefits are far greater than just physical health.
FOR HEALTHY LIVING
IMPROVING THE NATION'S HEALTH AND WELL-BEING
Being healthy means more than simply being physically active. It's about maintaining a balanced spirit, mind and body. At the Y, it's not about the activity you choose as much as it is about the benefits of living healthier on the inside as well as the outside.
FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
GIVING BACK AND PROVIDING SUPPORT TO OUR NEIGHBORS
The generosity of others is at the heart of the Y's existence as a nonprofit. It is only because of the support of volunteers and donors that we are able to support and give back to our community.
