Welcome

YMCA of Abilene was chartered in 1947 by the National Council of YMCA and in good standing for over 60 years. Managed by board and staff, serving distinct roles in the operation of the association Partnership remains paramount in working together for development of policy. We have 60 to 80 part-time employees; lifeguards, after-school and summer day camp counselors, fitness instructors, and maintenance personnel. We give back approximately $80,000 annually for assistance in membership and program participation.

Today, the Y engages more than 10,000 neighborhoods across the U.S. As the nation’s leading nonprofit committed to helping people and communities to learn, grow and thrive, our contributions are both far-reaching and intimate—from influencing our nation’s culture during times of profound social change to the individual support we provide an adult learning to read.

By nurturing the potential of every child and teen, improving the nation’s health and well-being, and supporting and serving our neighbors, the Y ensures that everyone has the opportunity to become healthier, more confident, connected and secure.
