Mission and programs · 2022

• HEALTHY LIVING: BEING HEALTHY MEANS MORE THAN SIMPLY BEING PHYSICALLY ACTIVE. IT'S ABOUT MAINTAINING A BALANCED SPIRIT, MIND AND BODY THROUGH A WIDE ARRAY OF GROUP EXERCISE CLASSES FROM WATER AEROBICS TO CYCLING. THE Y IS A PLACE WHERE YOU CAN WORK TOWARD THAT BALANCE BY CHALLENGING YOURSELF TO LEARN A NEW SKILL OR HOBBY, FOSTERING CONNECTIONS WITH FRIENDS THROUGH OUR LIFELONG LEARNING PROGRAMS, OR BRINGING LOVED ONES CLOSER TOGETHER THROUGH OUR MANY FAMILY-CENTERED ACTIVITIES. AT THE Y, IT'S NOT ABOUT THE ACTIVITY YOU CHOOSE AS MUCH AS IT IS ABOUT THE BENEFITS OF LIVING HEALTHIER ON THE INSIDE AS WELL AS THE OUTSIDE. SERVING FAMILIES HAS ALWAYS BEEN AT THE HEART OF THE Y. WE ARE A PLACE WHERE THEY CAN FIND RESPITE FROM SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND EDUCATIONAL CHALLENGES, AND LEARN HOW TO OVERCOME THEM. WE HAVE A FUNDAMENTAL DESIRE TO PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR EVERY FAMILY TO BUILD STRONGER BONDS, THROUGH UNIQUE PROGRAMS THAT SUPPORT PHYSICAL, INTELLECTUAL AND SPIRITUAL STRENGTH, LIKE SILVER SNEAKERS AND ACTIVE OLDER ADULT PROGRAMS. WE BELIEVE SPORTS, FUN, AND EXPLORING NEW INTERESTS AREN'T JUST FOR THE YOUNG. ALONG WITH IMPROVING HEALTH, WHENEVER TEAMWORK IS INVOLVED, THERE'S THE ADDED BENEFIT OF BEING CONNECTED TO OTHERS. THAT'S WHY YOU'LL FIND A RANGE OF RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES AT THE Y, FROM GROUP CLASSES TO ADULT SPORTS LEAGUES.

• YOUTH DEVELOPMENT: WE BELIEVE THE VALUES AND SKILLS LEARNED EARLY ON ARE VITAL BUILDING BLOCKS FOR LIFE. BECAUSE OF THE Y, MORE YOUNG PEOPLE IN NEIGHBORHOODS AROUND OUR COMMUNITY ARE TAKING A GREATER INTEREST IN LEARNING AND MAKING SMARTER LIFE CHOICES. AT THE Y, CHILDREN AND TEENS LEARN VALUES AND POSITIVE BEHAVIOR AND CAN EXPLORE THEIR UNIQUE TALENTS AND INTERESTS, HELPING THEM REALIZE THEIR POTENTIAL. THAT MAKES FOR CONFIDENT KIDS TODAY AND CONTRIBUTING AND ENGAGED ADULTS TOMORROW. THE Y MAKES SURE THAT EVERY CHILD HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO ENVISION AND PURSUE A POSITIVE FUTURE, AND TO TAKE AN ACTIVE ROLE IN STRENGTHENING HIS OR HER COMMUNITY, THROUGH PROGRAMS LIKE OUR CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER OR BEFORE-AND-AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM AND OTHERS LIKE YMCA YOUTH AND GOVERNMENT AND Y ACHIEVERS, WHICH OFFERS CAREER EXPLORATION AND COLLEGE PREPARATION. FOR OTHERS, THE Y IS THE STARTING POINT FOR KIDS TO LEARN ABOUT BECOMING AND STAYING ACTIVE, AND DEVELOPING HEALTHY HABITS THEY'LL CARRY WITH THEM THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES. WHETHER IT'S GAINING THE CONFIDENCE THAT COMES FROM LEARNING TO SWIM OR BUILDING THE POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS THAT LEAD TO GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP AND TEAMWORK, PARTICIPATING IN YOUTH SPORTS PROGRAMS AT THE Y IS ABOUT BUILDING THE WHOLE CHILD, FROM THE INSIDE OUT. VERY FEW ENVIRONMENTS ARE AS SPECIAL AS CAMP, WHERE KIDS BECOME A COMMUNITY AS THEY LEARN BOTH HOW TO BE MORE INDEPENDENT AND HOW TO CONTRIBUTE TO A GROUP AS THEY ENGAGE IN PHYSICAL, SOCIAL AND EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES. OUR SUMMER DAY CAMPS, SPECIALTY CAMPS AND RESIDENT CAMP TEACHES SELF-RELIANCE, A LOVE FOR NATURE AND THE OUTDOORS, AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ATTITUDES AND PRACTICES THAT BUILD CHARACTER AND LEADERSHIP.

• SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY: AS A LEADING NOT-FOR-PROFIT COMMITTED TO STRENGTHENING COMMUNITY THROUGH YOUTH DEVELOPMENT, HEALTHY LIVING AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, THE Y WAS CREATED IN RESPONSE TO SOCIAL CHALLENGES AND REMAINS TO THIS DAY A LIFELINE IN COMMUNITIES AROUND THE WORLD. THE Y UNDERSTANDS THE CHALLENGES THAT KEEP INDIVIDUALS FROM REACHING THEIR FULL POTENTIAL AND RESPONDS WITH SERVICES AND SUPPORT WHICH HELP PEOPLE TO BE SELF-RELIANT, PRODUCTIVE AND CONNECTED TO THE COMMUNITY. EACH Y RESPONDS TO THE UNIQUE ISSUES INFLUENCING THE COMMUNITY AND PROVIDES SUPPORT THROUGH SERVICES FOCUSED ON CRITICAL AREAS, SUCH AS CHILD WELFARE, COMMUNITY HEALTH, QUALITY OF LIFE OR FAMILY SERVICES. TO BRING ABOUT MEANINGFUL CHANGE, INDIVIDUALS NEED ONGOING ENCOURAGEMENT AND TOOLS. WE'RE HERE DAY-IN AND DAY-OUT TO PROVIDE RESOURCES OUR COMMUNITIES NEED. THE Y ADDRESSES SOCIAL ISSUES, THROUGH OUR Y SENIOR CENTER, THE YMCA MILITARY WELCOME CENTER, OUTDOOR EDUCATION AT YMCA CAMP CLASSEN AND THE SAFETY AROUND WATER PROGRAM THAT TEACHES UNDERSERVED KIDS HOW TO SWIM. ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF BUILDING A GLOBAL COMMUNITY IS GIVING YOUNG PEOPLE OPPORTUNITIES TO UNDERSTAND AND CELEBRATE DIVERSITY. THE Y HELPS PEOPLE TO DEVELOP CULTURAL COMPETENCIES AND THE KEY SKILLS TO COLLABORATE WITH THEIR PEERS AROUND THE WORLD THROUGH OUR INTERNATIONAL CAMP COUNSELOR PROGRAM AND BRAZILIAN EXCHANGE PROGRAM. FINALLY, THE GENEROSITY OF OTHERS IS AT THE CORE OF OUR EXISTENCE. IT IS ONLY THROUGH THE SUPPORT OF OUR THOUSANDS OF VOLUNTEERS AND PUBLIC AND PRIVATE DONORS THAT WE ARE ABLE TO GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE.

As filed on the 2022 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2022

As listed in Part VII of the 2022 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
