Demanding Equity For All
Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
The YMCA of Greater Boston is committed to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging. We recognize that systemic racism shows up in every aspect of society, creating disparities in health, education, housing, employment, and wealth accumulation. We will work to eradicate these disparities by: building bridges between diverse groups; creating communities free of racism, inequities, and inequality; and offering programs, services, and spaces where everyone is seen, heard and safe. We will demand equity for all.
Our Commitment
The Y strengthens communities. Lasting personal and social change comes about when we all work together. As reported in our Form 990, in 2023 91% of every dollar spent went toward programs and services that impact the lives of thousands of children, individuals, and families across Greater Boston. This critical support was made possible by the enormous generosity of many individuals, funders and organizations.
