Become a Volunteer
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES INCLUDE:
Program Volunteers: Our volunteers nurture the potential of thousands of kids, teens and adults year-round. They teach, mentor, guide and support youth from their first few weeks of life through their first steps into adulthood. Volunteers assist as youth sports coaches, member services volunteers or through clubs, classes and events.
Volunteers for Credit: The YMCA provides opportunities for students who need to participate in school-required volunteer services.
Fundraising Volunteers: Volunteers help the YMCA listen and respond to our region’s most critical social needs. They help inspire compassion and involvement in our community through fundraising for the annual campaign, sharing personal testimonials, joining Togetherhood and encouraging others to support the Y.
