Volunteerism

Volunteers are at the heart of the YMCA and that is why the YMCA is at the heart of the community. When you are a volunteer at the YMCA, you are part of a not-for-profit organization with a vision of building strong kids, strong families and strong communities.

Your time and talent will translate into helping a child, mentoring a teen or providing support for families. You can help create a safe, healthy and caring environment that will nurture people of all ages and backgrounds, helping them to become successful members of our community. Program volunteers help to lead programs as an instructor or coach aide. Support volunteers work in the office, front desk or around the grounds. Fund-raising volunteers raise funds through our campaigns (annual, capital, special or sustaining), work on endowment development, work at/run special events.

Volunteers are essential to the YMCA. If you would like to volunteer, contact the Trotter Family YMCA at 713.781.1061.
