The Y is for Everyone, and in Arizona, that’s been true since 1892.

The Valley of the Sun YMCA is one of Arizona’s oldest and largest nonprofits, proudly serving thousands of families across 15 communities statewide. Long before Arizona was even a state, we were here, building community, strengthening families, and helping people live healthier, fuller lives.

At the Y, we believe healthy living isn’t a trend. It’s a way of life. We show up every day to be well, do good, and lead change and we invite you to do the same. Whether you’re looking for a world-class fitness facility, youth programs, swim lessons, childcare, or simply a welcoming place to belong, the Valley of the Sun YMCA has something for every age, every ability, and every background.

For over a century, our mission has remained the same: to develop healthy minds, bodies, and spirits for all. We are more than a gym. We are a community, a family, and a force for good in the neighborhoods we serve. Together, we embrace the social responsibilities of today while building a stronger, healthier Arizona for tomorrow.

Be Well. Do Good. Lead Change. That’s the Y.
