Volunteers
A volunteer’s very nature helps root the YMCA to its identity as an association of people motivated by an ethic of service. The Y’s founder was a volunteer. In 1844 George Williams saw a community need and created the Y to help fill that need. A YMCA volunteer is defined as anyone who willingly gives time to help the YMCA accomplish its mission.
