By convening youth and professionals from diverse industries under one roof, the YMCA of Greater New York reinforced its commitment to empowering young New Yorkers and preparing them to start building their future — connecting them to possibilities and giving them exposure to careers they may not otherwise encounter.

About the YMCA of Greater New York

For more than 170 years, the YMCA of Greater New York has been where New Yorkers find their purpose, their people and their place. 

As New York City’s leading nonprofit advancing individual and community health and well-being for all, the Y empowers everyone, no matter who they are or where they’re from, by providing access and opportunities for all to learn, grow and thrive. The Y provides a place to play, to be healthy and to give back. It gives parents childcare, young adults job training, seniors a way to connect, and children a safe place to go.

By bringing people together from different backgrounds, perspectives and generations, the Y improves overall health and well-being, ignites youth empowerment and connects and supports diverse communities across New York City.
