Volunteer

Change the Future. For a Better Us.®

At the Y, volunteering means building relationships and creating a stronger community for everyone.

Get Involved:

Our YMCA offers year-round volunteer opportunities for members and non-members from the community and surrounding areas. Opportunities vary throughout the year and are based upon need within a program or department.

Volunteer Opportunities:

There are many ways to help at your local Y. Volunteering does more than help others, it can change your own life for the better. That's what we're all about here at the Y. 

Whether you're mentoring a child, serving a meal, coaching a team or lending a helping hand, your time creates opportunities for people of all ages to learn, grow and thrive.

As a volunteer, you must complete a background check, volunteer application and any applicable training. If you volunteer with children, a fingerprint check is also required. For additional information or to apply to volunteer, browse our current opportunities.

Looking for a meaningful way to serve your community? Youth volunteers can gain valuable leadership experience while making a positive impact through select YMCA programs.

Youth volunteer opportunities include:

• Food Programs (meal packing)

• Day Camp & Overnight Camp (as counselors-in-training)

• School Break Camps (as counselors-in-training)

Volunteering helps young people develop leadership skills, build confidence, make new friends and discover the power of serving others.
