Armstrong County YMCA

Get Involved

At the YMCA, your time and talent go a long way. Every hour you spend as a YMCA volunteer translates into the caring attention a child or teen needs to grow up healthy and resilient. It translates into support for families so they can be successful and strong; into healthier lives for people of all ages, backgrounds, abilities and incomes; into a safer, more viable community that's a good place to live and work.

As a YMCA volunteer, you can lead an exercise class, read to a pre-school class, coach a basketball team, cook for a bake sale, design a program brochure, greet people at the front desk, find items for an auction, serve as a role model for young people, help out in the office or at a special event, or be part of a group or committee working on a neighborhood problem. No matter how you help, you'll make a big difference as you work with others to create a feeling of connectedness in your community.

To solve the problems closest to home—or better yet, prevent them—the YMCA needs more people like you. Do something good. Volunteer at the YMCA.
