Strengthening Community

The Goldsboro Family YMCA is more than a gym. We’re a charitable organization committed to serving our community by supporting youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. Our core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility guide us as we serve people from all walks of life throughout Wayne County and the surrounding areas. We take on some of society’s biggest challenges, such as narrowing the academic achievement gap, addressing pressing public health issues, and reducing social isolation by giving people a place to connect.

Hunger Initiatives

More than 1.6 million people are food insecure in North Carolina. This means they lack reliable access to affordable, nutritious food. Many of our neighbors also live in food deserts, areas where it's difficult to buy affordable or good-quality fresh food. The Y is working hard to bridge this gap and provide access to our community.

Become a Volunteer

When you volunteer at the Y, you take an active role in bringing about meaningful, enduring change right in your own neighborhood. Whether it's once a week or once a year, there are so many ways to give your time, change lives and volunteer at the Y!
