Healthy living - the y is a leading voice on health and well-being. We bring families closer together, encourage good health and foster connections through fitness, sports, fun and shared interests. As a result, 5,000 people in our community are receiving the support, guidance and resources they need to achieve greater health and spirit, mind and body. This is particularly important as our nation struggles with an obesity crisis, families struggle with work/life balance and individuals search for personal fulfillment. Our programs are accessible, affordable and open to all faiths, backgrounds, abilities and income levels.

Youth development - the YMCA of greenwich is committed to nurturing the potential of every child and teen.

Our YMCA programs, such as summer camp, childcare, competitive swimming, diving and water polo, swim lessons and youth sports, offer a range of experiences that enrich cognitive, social, physical and emotional growth. Expenses include subsidies and direct financial assistance that make participation possible for the young people we engage.
