Volunteer at the Y
Who is a YMCA Volunteer?
YMCA volunteers are our group exercise instructors. They coach youth sports teams and teach children and adults life-saving swim skills. Still, others work in our offices and support the Strong Kids Campaign. No matter how volunteers help, they make a big difference as they work with others to create a feeling of connectedness in your community.
To apply for a volunteer position, please complete the volunteer application in full, including the Washington State patrol background check.
