Volunteers are the backbone to our remarkable past. They are the strengths today; and they are the promise of our future. YMCA volunteers - who are usually members, too - share a strong sense of responsibility toward the community and the YMCA. Volunteer members assist with program, formulate policy, develop new program initiatives and evaluate existing services. There are always new challenges for volunteers to tackle. We value and appreciate the contributions of our volunteers helping us stay true to our mission. Volunteers can bring their talents to the Y in a number of ways.
