ABOUT US
The nonprofit YMCA of Western North Carolina strengthens local communities through youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.

We do this through seven YMCAs, dozens of program sites, and YMCA Camp Watia. As the state's largest provider of licensed school-age child care, we give more than 1,000 children a day the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.
