YMCA Canada

The YMCA of Greater Toronto is part of YMCA Canada. As a federation of 45 YMCAs and five YMCA-YWCAs across the country, YMCA Canada has three primary goals:

To foster the development of strong Member Associations and encourage collaborative initiative
To protect and enhance the reputation of the YMCA
To advocate on behalf of Member Associations regionally, nationally, and internationally

Together, YMCAs across Canada serve 2 million people in more than 1,000 communities. All local associations are members of YMCA Canada, which works to strengthen associations and advocate on their behalf, regionally, nationally, and internationally.

YMCA Canada's Organizational Structure

YMCA Canada is governed by a national voluntary Board of Directors, which oversees national plans and priorities. YMCAs across the country nominate volunteer board members. YMCA Canada’s President and Chief Executive Officer is accountable to the Board for national operations.
