48,800 donors give $32.2 million in annual
giving and capital support to the YMCA
Over 23,800 Canadians from communities across the country and
from all walks of life currently donate their time to the YMCA. In
2009 alone, these exceptional volunteers contributed 1,150,000
volunteer hours on tasks as diverse as serving on Association
Boards, teaching fitness classes, helping out with fundraising,
running special events, delivering children and youth programs,
mentoring and more. We train volunteers through our
YMCA Leadership Development System.
Given the exceptional breadth and scope of YMCA
programs and services, the volunteering possibilities are almost
endless. If you want to:

- Gain valuable experience
- Meet people who share your interests
- Enhance your leadership skills, or
- Share your knowledge and life lessons with members of your
community
... we invite you to volunteer at your local YMCA or
