At the YMCA, we believe in people. We see their potential. We find strength in telling stories of our differences and find inspiration in sharing our diversity – all with the purpose of bringing us closer together. 

We want to thank our donors for all that they do. They are community-builders, opening doors and opportunities, creating a greater sense of belonging for all.

YMCA Calgary strives to be a trusted charity and a neighbour you can count on. These two ideas can only come to life when everyone has an opportunity to belong.
