Today, the Y engages more than 10,000 neighborhoods across the U.S. As the nation’s leading nonprofit committed to helping people and communities to learn, grow and thrive. Our contributions are both far-reaching and intimate. We have a strong history, and have played a significant role in the development of our country.
The Y invented basketball, volleyball and racquetball, along with pioneering camping, physical fitness and swim lessons.
The Y helped found the USO, Boy Scouts of America and Camp Fire Girls.
Y volunteers have provided support and service to millions of soldiers and continues to do so today.
The Y continues to forge ahead! On July 12, 2010, the Y unveiled a new branding initiative. We want to tell our story!
