VOLUNTEERISM & GIVING
Volunteer at the Y
The Y is a cause for strengthening communities, committed every day to youth
development, healthy living and social responsibility. When you volunteer at
the Y, you take an active role in bringing about meaningful, enduring change
right in your own neighborhood.
Each of our volunteers helps deliver the benefits of good health, strong
connections, greater self-confidence and a sense of security to all who seek
it. Contact the YMCA to find out more about volunteer opportunities…you
won’t believe what you can do!
Financial Assistance
The YMCA of Youngstown provides services for any youth or adult who desires
to participate regardless of their ability to pay the established membership,
class or program fee. Those not able to pay the full fee may receive financial
assistance based on their demonstrated inability to pay. Pick up an application
for financial assistance at the Service Desk or online.
Annual Support Campaign
The YMCA of Youngstown has been putting Christian principles into practice
for boys and girls of all ages, incomes, abilities, races and religions for 130
years. Children and families who cannot afford to pay full fee for membership
and programs need the experiences the Y offers as much as those who can.
The Y needs your help. Please give generously to our Annual Support Campaign
and get involved by volunteering for this important cause.
When you give to the Y, you continue to strengthen our community and move us
all forward. As the nation’s leading nonprofit for youth development, healthy
living and social responsibility, the Y uses your gift to make a meaningful,
enduring impact right in your own neighborhood.
The Y works to nurture the potential of children and teens, improve the nation’s
health and well-being, and give back and support our neighbors.
We believe that lasting personal and social change can only come about when
we all work together. That’s why, at the Y, strengthening community is our
cause.
GENERAL POLICIES
Credit and Refund Policy
Occasionally, a member may need to drop a class. While every situation
is different, generally the only valid request for a credit or refund is for a
medically verifiable illness or injury. Any such requests must take place during
the session. All refunds are subject to a $10 processing fee. However, by
choosing a credit instead of a refund, the processing fee will be waived and
the full eligible amount can be used for future class registrations. Participants
dropping after the first class will receive a pro-rated refund or credit.
Credit or refund requests for reasons other than medical are at the discretion
of the Director. Of course, there will be a full refund or credit if the class is
cancelled or rescheduled by the YMCA.

There is no other nonprofit quite like the Y. That’s because in 10,000 neighborhoods
across the nation, we have the presence and partnerships to not just promise,
but to deliver, lasting personal and social change.
Our Impact
The Y is, and always will be, dedicated to building
healthy, confident, connected and secure children,
adults, families and communities. Every day our
impact is felt when an individual makes a healthy
choice, when a mentor inspires a child and when a
community comes together for the common good.
Mission: To put Christian principles into practice through
programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all.
