Building on a Strong History

Since 1972, the YMCA of South Palm Beach County has served as the anchor of the community, supporting tens of thousands of children and adults from all walks of life. From learning to walk to learning to swim, from supporting families to supporting cancer survivors, the Y helps everyone be stronger in spirit, mind and body. 

The Y is a special place. When we come together as one community, we are able to create an environment where everyone feels as home. Every member, donor and volunteer us able to find their place and their purpose. 

Today we have the opportunity to build on this strong history and create new possibilities. 

Building Trust

While South Palm Beach County continues to be rated as one of the best places to live in Florida, residents from all backgrounds face challenges.
