Our mission

The YMCA of Greater Boston is dedicated to improving the health of mind, body and spirit of individuals and families in our communities. We welcome men and women, boys and girls of all incomes, faiths and cultures. We provide childcare and after-school programs for more than 3,300 children each school day in greater Boston. We provide affordable and accessible programs to more than 100,000 children, teens, adults and seniors every year, thanks to nearly 1,500 employees, 550 summer teen employees and 1,500 dedicated volunteers. We help 4,000 individuals a year from 35 countries learn to participate in our community and the local economy through English as a Second Language and job training programs.
Opportunities

Help with free food distribution to Boston Public Schools children

The YMCA of Greater Boston is providing free breakfast and lunch to all children 18 and under around the city during school closures due to COVID-19. Volunteers are needed to support food distribution at each of these sites between 8:00 am-12:00 pm Monday – Friday. The YMCA is  collectively taking all advised precautions to protect volunteers and community members, and we ask all volunteers to do the same.  If you are feeling ill, or if you have had a fever or symptoms in the past 24 hours, please do not volunteer.  If you knowingly have been exposed to COVID-19, please do not volunteer.  All volunteer opportunities will be organized to meet social distancing recommendations, hand sanitizer will be provided, and interaction with residents will be minimized.  Click a location below to be taken to a page to sign up for a shift.
