Community Programs

The YMCA of Northern Alberta has responded to urgent community issues since 1907. By addressing several of the key social determinants of health—including education, housing, physical health and well-being—the YMCA is committed to building healthy families, children and communities. YMCA staff and volunteers work together to provide important programs for children, youth, adults and families. We work in a holistic and strategic manner to support participants in achieving their goals.

    Edmonton YMCA Foundation

    The Edmonton YMCA Foundation was formed on January 4, 1991 for the purpose of holding and investing endowment funds for the YMCA, and for investing earnings on those funds in YMCA programs, services and facilities. The Foundation supports current YMCA programs and is creating a legacy to ensure that the Y will continue to build strong kids, strong families and strong communities for generations to come.
