YMCA Mission

To put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all.

The nation's leading nonprofit, building and supporting our community.

At the Y, strengthening the community is our cause. Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income and background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.

Anchored in neighborhoods of Butler County, the Y believes that lasting personal and social change can only come about when we all work together to invest in our kids, our health and our community.

The Y is, and always will be, dedicated to building healthy, confident, connected and secure children, adults, families and communities.

Our community is our primary focus

There is no other nonprofit quite like the Y. That’s because in 10,000 neighborhoods across the nation, we have the presence and partnerships not just to promise but to deliver lasting personal and social change.

  • The Y is community centered. For nearly 160 years, we’ve been listening and responding to our communities.
  • The Y brings people together. We connect people of all ages and backgrounds to bridge the gaps in community needs.
  • The Y nurtures potential. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.
  • The Y has local presence and national reach. We mobilize local communities to effect lasting, meaningful change.

Nonprofit

As a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, the Y provides crucial programs and services to more than 30,000 people every year. With the help of generous donors, we are able to provide more than 350 families and youth with discounted or free memberships and programs.
