Los Alamos YMCA imageVolunteers

Volunteers are the grass roots of the YMCA's identity as an association of people motivated by a community service ethic.  Original founder George Williams was a volunteer, and today, volunteers continue to play a substantial role at The Family YMCA:

  • Volunteers help teach the values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
  • Volunteers give back to the community as mentors, coaches, skilled instructors, assistants and partners.
  • Volunteers share their strengths, talent, ideas and time.
  • Volunteers contribute a needed service.

In 2006, 367 volunteers donated 7,500 hours of their time to The Family YMCA!

We have volunteer opportunities in child care, member services, coaching, program instruction, facility maintenance, and in the climbing wall. Our special events and annual campaigns also need volunteers.

To volunteer, please call 662-3100.
