Madison Area YMCA
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization, the Madison Area YMCA staff and volunteers work in an ongoing partnership to build a healthier, stronger community for children and adults of all ages.
Through our philanthropic, early childhood education, wellness and youth development programs, we build community and work to assure that Y programs and services are available to everyone regardless of their economic circumstances.
We operate with three core priorities:
*Youth Development, providing care and education for infants, toddlers and preschoolers; and development for school-age children and teens through sports, athletics and leadership programs.
*Healthy Living, providing classes and programs to promote health and overall wellbeing.
*Social Responsibility, engaging the community in activities such as child protection education and philanthropic fundraising to assure broad access to Y programs and services.
