About us
The Y: We're for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. WHO WE ARE The Y is the nation’s leading nonprofit strengthening communities through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Across the U.S., 2,700 Ys engage 22 million men, women and children – regardless of age, income or background – to empower young people to reach their full potential, improve individual and community well-being and give back and inspire action in our communities. Anchored in more than 10,000 communities, the Y has the long-standing relationships and physical presence not just to 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, 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.

Every community is unique, and so is every Y. For the YMCA of Martha's Vineyard, a small island located seven miles (and a ferry ride away) off the coast of Cape Cod, Mass., strengthening their island community--including both year-round residents and the more than 100,000 vacationers who flock there in the summer--means creating a safe place for teens to hang out after school, offering robust health and fitness classes for active older adults, providing some of the first camp experiences for island children, and operating the island's beloved ice arena. 📺 https://lnkd.in/dCQYuJTd #strengtheningcommunities #findyourY
