KENTUCKY & WEST VIRGINIA ALLIANCE OF YMCAS

The YMCA (Young Men's Christian Association) was founded in 1844. It operates in 120 countries and serves 58 million people. YMCA associations are strongly rooted in their communities and offer a variety of programs and services based on the local context and priority issues affecting their communities... We know that lasting personal and social change comes about when we all work together. That's why at the Y, strengthening community is our cause. Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive... Each day our goal is to strengthen communities. We believe that to bring about meaningful change in individuals and communities, we must be focused and accountable. At the Y, we measure the success of our cause by how well we engage communities in our three areas of focus: youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.
