SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
GIVING BACK AND PROVIDING SUPPORT TO OUR NEIGHBORS
The YMCA of the Fox Cities has listened and responded to our communities’ most critical social needs for over 130 years. Whether developing skills or emotional well-being through education and training, welcoming and connecting diverse demographic populations through global services, or preventing chronic disease and building healthier communities through collaborations with policymakers, the Y fosters the care and respect all people need and deserve. Through the Y, thousands of volunteers, donors, leaders and partners across the country are empowering millions of people in the U.S. and around the world to be healthy, confident, connected and secure.
