Greg Jones, President and CEOOur Mission
 

The mission of the YMCA is to put Judeo-Christian principles into practice through programs that build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all.

 

Our Vision
 

The YMCA of Greensboro will be a warm, friendly environment radiating a feeling of belonging and caring where people of all ages, races, faith, beliefs, physical, and financial abilities participate in worthwhile programs and meaningful experiences that make a positive difference in their lives.

 

Our Values
 

The YMCA of Greensboro is committed to putting Christian principles into practice. YMCA programs, activities, and relationships teach modern Judeo-Christian values in order to strengthen children, families, and communities. Caring, honesty, respect and responsibility are core values that are evident in all we do. We are a private, not-for-profit membership organization that serves the Greensboro community. We seek to broaden an individual’s involvement, first from participant to member, and later to volunteer, donor, and advocate. YMCA programs are developmental in nature, helping people grow in spirit, mind, and body. We recognize the benefits of recreational time and pursuits. We seek to be fairly priced, affordable to all, and perceived as a good value. Charitable and earned revenue together provide the necessary resources to accomplish our mission. Our goal is to turn no one away because of an inability to pay. We provide scholarships on a sliding scale and keep membership and program fees affordable for those in need who desire to become a part of the YMCA family.
