To ensure the safety of all members, guests, and program participants, volunteers will be required to pass reference and background checks, and must complete YMCA safety training.
As a YMCA volunteer, your time and talent go a long way. You can lead a program or class, serve as a role model for young people, become a sports coach, help with a special event, campaign for annual support, or be a part of a committee working to make the YMCA the best it can be. No matter how you help, you’ll make a big difference as you work with others to create a feeling of connectedness in your community.
