Team Us will develop the mind, body and spirit of our people in order for them to achieve their desires and aspirations both personally and professionally. Our staff and volunteers will have an increased sense of belonging to YMCA, more chances to contribute to our mission and the opportunity to thrive in their careers and future opportunities.

Latest highlights (Apr-June 2023)

We have helped staff to contribute through Mission 25 hours – with people giving 562 hours towards Mission 25, Connect Groups and Workplace Shadowing. We are celebrating how staff are thriving through a record number of 290 nominations for our George Williams Awards.
