About

The Y: We’re for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility

Story

At the Y, strengthening community is our cause. We work side-by-side with our neighbors throughout King and south Snohomish counties to help kids and families thrive – and to apply their positive behaviors at home, school, the workplace and beyond.

Mission

To build a community where all people, especially the young, are encouraged to develop their fullest potential in spirit, mind and body.
We live our mission daily, one person and relationship at a time:

• Reaching 171,500 people of all backgrounds, abilities and financial circumstances
• Nurturing 84,000 children to develop their gifts and give back to our community
• Engaging 9,500 volunteers who contribute nearly 90,000 hours of service each year
• Working with 12,000 Annual Campaign donors investing $4.6 million in local kids and families
