What Our Volunteers Have to Say ...
“I volunteer for the Y because they focus on being student lead. They encourage students to be as involved, in any program, as much as they want within their comfort zones."
- Hannah “HP” Price, Volunteer
"I volunteer with the Y to give back to the programs I loved as a teen. The Y gave me the opportunity to meet people I never would have otherwise, and gave me a place to find my voice. Now, I want to help make that space for today’s youth. "
- April "AJ" Winebarger, Volunteer
