WE WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
The Y is more than day camp, child care, sports, fitness or youth programs. It is a worldwide family of more than 120 autonomous national movements committed to building a positive future for youth and families. The Y, founded in London, England, in 1844, is one of the largest social service organizations in the world, responding to the diverse needs of individuals in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, Europe, and North America. The Y currently serves over 45 million youth and families worldwide. In countries throughout the world, Y programs respond to local needs identified by each national Y movement. The Y is open to all faiths, races, abilities, ages and incomes.
The Y is a nonprofit like no other. That’s because in 10,000 neighborhoods across the nation, we have the presence and partnerships to not just promise, but deliver, positive change.
