Volunteer founded and volunteer led, YMCAs depend upon the generosity and dedication of hundreds of thousands of volunteers across the United States to meet the unique needs of each community.
Volunteers are at the heart of every YMCA and that is why YMCAs are at the heart of community life in more than 10,000 communities nationwide. From helping Civil War troops more than a century ago to international disaster relief efforts today, YMCAs are one of the nation’s leading volunteer organizations.
Volunteers are at the center of YMCAs—from reading to preschoolers and leading family activities to teaching swimming. They also serve on policymaking boards that set the strategic direction for their YMCA and partner with professional staff to ensure that community needs are met effectively.
We can use:
- Computer room supervisors
- Aquatics assistants
- Mentors
- Child care assistants
- Gym supervisors
- Fundraisers
- Data entry
- Fitness instructors
- Weight room attendants
- Coaches
- Officials
- Senior activities
- And more.
Thank you for your interest in volunteerism. The best way to find out about available volunteer opportunities is to contact a YMCA branch of your choice and ask the Director in charge how you can help.
