Since 1997, the Schuylkill YMCA has been working in our communities to strengthen the individual in spirit, mind, and body. From the hundreds of youth that pass through our programs each year to the seniors that utilize our services, we strive to recognize the worth of all persons and help them grow as responsible members of our families and communities.
By teaching our youth to develop confidence and self-respect, we know that they will also develop leadership skills and be able to use those skills responsibly.
By helping older adults develop a faith to live by, we know that they'll continue to live healthy, productive lives.
By always stressing principles and values in every program and service, we know the Schuylkill YMCA will be a strong, viable community partner.
