GIVE A LITTLE, GET A LOT!

With a focus on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility, Y volunteers give men, women and children of all ages and from all walks of life the resources and support they need to be healthy, confident, connected and secure.  Volunteers are vital to our Y and by opening up your heart and extending your hand to our Y community, you will be changing lives of so many.

"You make a living by what you get. You make a life by what you give."
- Winston Churchill

GET INVOLVED

At our Y it does not matter how you get involved, we have so many opportunities for you to help; whether once a year or every week; for an internship or community service. We are here to provide those positive experiences for you. All of our volunteers share an equal passion for the Y’s work to strengthen our community.
