About the Y

Our 3 Areas of Focus

• The Y is for Youth Development – Nurturing the development of every child and teen.
• The Y is for Healthy Living – Improving the nation’s health and well being.
• The Y is for Social Responsibility – Giving back and providing support for our neighbors.

The Y is a diverse organization of men, women and children joined together by a shared commitment to nurturing the potential of kids, promoting healthy living and fostering a sense of social responsibility. Our membership is 21 million strong, and spread across more than 2,600 Y associations nationwide. Since no two communities are exactly alike, no two Ys are exactly alike. We bring men, women and children – just like you together – and our shared commitment to our communities ensures the opportunities to learn, grow and thrive that we create for all are ones that endure.

While our programs and facilities are always based on the unique needs and interests of our communities, every Y has one thing in common: our people. The volunteers, staff, members and donors of the Y are all united by a deep commitment to strengthening our communities.
 

Our Y is organizing volunteers for some projects at the Y and in the community. If you are interested in helping, please contact Tim Allen via email, tim.allen@huntingtony.org, or stop by and ask for Tim. Join us—we could use someone like you.

"Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow."
