YMCA International

The Y is more than day camp, child care, sports, fitness or youth programs. It is a worldwide family of over 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.
