About us
Strengthening Our Military Family™ Through Youth Development, Healthy Living, and Social Responsibility The Armed Services YMCA (ASYMCA) is a Charity Watch and Charity Navigator top-rated, 501(c)(3) military charity, ranking among the top two percent of charities nationwide for effectiveness and fiscal responsibility. We provide free and low-cost specialized programming and support services to military service members and their families with a particular focus on junior-enlisted men and women. As a national member association of the YMCA of the USA, we operate more than 200 program centers worldwide. In coordination with the Department of Defense and installation commands, we work closely to identify gaps in support and services currently available, and tailor our programming to meet those needs. Our programming offers essential services such as childcare, hospital assistance, spousal and deployment support services, emergency food and essentials assistance, educational and mentoring programs for military children, counseling, wounded warrior support, wounded family support, health and wellness services, family and youth recreational program and activities, and holiday programs. All programming is tailored to the specific needs of the military community on the local level. We greatly rely on public support to keep our programming free and low-cost. Our volunteers deliver thousands of volunteer hours each year to serve the nearly 240,000 service and family members our programming reaches at our branch and affiliate locations annually. Your generous support is greatly appreciated! Please visit our website to make a donation or to get involved. www.asymca.org

The ASYMCA is deeply saddened by the loss of Naval aviators Lt. Serena Wileman and Lt. Cmdr. Lyndsay Evans. Our thoughts are with their families, loved ones, and their brothers and sisters of the Electronic Attack Squadron 130 based out of Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, Washington. These aviators were both decorated combat veterans—and we honor their service to our great nation. https://ow.ly/yqtb50TRaXr
