Being open to everyone

Regardless of age, gender, ability, disability, race, religion or socio economic circumstance you are welcome at the YMCA. Every day those who are less fortunate are sponsored by the Family YMCA, encouraging individuals to grow in spirit, mind and body. No one is refused service based on the inability to pay.

Serving people of all backgrounds

One of the magical things about the Family YMCA of Prince George is that people of all backgrounds and abilities and circumstances are served in YMCA programs. The term ‘Family YMCA’ is a direct reflection of those we serve. Young families, intergenerational families, single parent families, blended families and extended families. From young moms to grandparents and great grandparents. From preschoolers to teenagers, there are many child and youth serving programs and activities at the YMCA. From the very fit to those de-conditioned, from those hurt in an accident or those with a lifelong disability, from those going to/from work to those in between work, from those in recovery programs to those in preventative programs all are a reflection of citizens who use our YMCA on a daily basis.

Community owned and governed

As a registered charity and not for profit society the Family YMCA of Prince George is community owned, governed and managed by a volunteer board of directors. Our purposes are charitable, our activities are dedicated to our purposes and every penny we earn is dedicated to serving the citizens of this community. Our assets are owned by both the Family YMCA and the City of Prince George for the benefit of all citizens. The Family YMCA exists for community benefit.
