The Y: We're for Youth Development, Healthy Living and Social Responsibility. Community Standards: https://t.co/9pGOw9mKrF… The Y: We're for Youth Development, Healthy Living and Social Responsibility. The YMCA of Greater Louisville is a mission-based organization of people of all ages, faiths & abilities, all working side-by-side to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to live life to its fullest. Our mission is to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all. The YMCA is committed to strengthening communities we serve through the delivery of programs and services in three areas: Youth Development, Healthy Living and Social Responsibility. We believe that lasting personal and social change can only come about when we work together to invest in our kids, our health and our neighbors. At the root of our Movement is our commitment to character development embodied in the Y's core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility; everything we do stems from this. With the help of our community's contributions, we provide financial assistance to those who are in need of YMCA programs and services.
