Armed Services YMCA of The U S A

Strengthening Our Military Family™ Through Youth Development, Healthy Living, and Social Responsibility

The Armed Services YMCA (ASYMCA) is a Charity Watch and Charity Navigator top-rated, 501(c)(3) military charity, ranking among the top two percent of charities nationwide for effectiveness and fiscal responsibility. We provide free and low-cost specialized programming and support services to military service members and their families with a particular focus on junior-enlisted men and women.

As a national member association of the YMCA of the USA, we operate more than 200 program centers worldwide. In coordination with the Department of Defense and installation commands, we work closely to identify gaps in support and services currently available, and tailor our programming to meet those needs.

Our programming offers essential services such as childcare, hospital assistance, spousal and deployment support services, emergency food and essentials assistance, educational and mentoring programs for military children, counseling, wounded warrior support, wounded family support, health and wellness services, family and youth recreational program and activities, and holiday programs. All programming is tailored to the specific needs of the military community on the local level.

We greatly rely on public support to keep our programming free and low-cost. Our volunteers deliver thousands of volunteer hours each year to serve the nearly 240,000 service and family members our programming reaches at our branch and affiliate locations annually.
