About Volunteering
Volunteers are at the very core of the YMCA movement. They coach Y youth sports programs, work at Y service centers, tutor kids, assist with special events and help guide our branches as members of Y Boards of Advisors. Volunteers help create a safe, healthy and caring environment for people of all ages and backgrounds.
Dedicated volunteers, members, staff and donors enable the Y to provide invaluable services and programming to thousands of St. Louis children, families and individuals. Time and talent translates into helping a child, mentoring a teen or providing support
Volunteer Opportunities
As a YMCA volunteer, you can lead a program, serve as a role model for young people, help out in the office or at a special event, raise much-needed funds, or be part of a group or committee working on a neighborhood issue. 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. Do something good.
