Volunteerism
Our volunteers are essential for helping the YMCA of Central New Mexico deliver positive, personal and social change. Last year alone, 2,400 volunteers provided valuable assistance with policies, programs, and activities, donating 48,000 hours of service!
With a focus on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility, Y volunteers give men, women and children of all ages and from all walks of life the resources and support they need to be healthy, confident, connected and secure.
