Young Men's Christian Association of South Hampton Roads

Social Responsibility: For nearly two centuries, the YMCA has stood for service, equity, and belonging. In 2024, that commitment was as strong as ever. Through new partnerships with local donors, the Boys and Young Men of Color strategy and committee launched to offer no-cost access to the Y's signature programs for teens. Our six Health Equity Campuses remain open and active dedicated to reducing barriers and providing vital services. The Safety Around Water program reached 4,301 children with life-saving swim instruction and equitable access, including transportation support. Through initiatives like our fully donor-funded sponsor-a-teen membership program, which welcomed 3,287 teens aged 13-17, we're driving change and opening doors for youth across the region.

OTHER: In addition to our core areas of focus, the Y offers a wide range of programs and events that foster connection and lifelong learning. From adult enrichment and community trainings to golf tournaments and conferences, we're building inclusive experiences that bring people together and help them grow at every stage of life.
