About McGaw YMCA

›MISSION:
The McGaw YMCA is an open, charitable membership association that promotes growth in spirit, mind and body through programs and services for all.

›VISION:
The McGaw YMCA will be Evanston’s lead collaborative partner in strengthening community.

›VALUES:
Caring
We demonstrate sincere concern for others, their needs and wellbeing.

Honesty
We tell the truth and demonstrate reliability and trustworthiness.

Respect
We treat others as we would want to be treated and value the worth of every person.

Responsibility
We do what is right and are accountable for our choices and actions.

Founded in 1885 to “promote mental, moral, physical and social welfare,” the Evanston YMCA remains true to the spirit of that mission today, although we have expanded to serve everyone in our diverse community. The Evanston YMCA was renamed the McGaw YMCA in 1984 in appreciation of a major gift from the Foster McGaw family. With about 12,000 members, we serve an estimated 20,000 people in our community each year.

“The relationship I built with the children was amazing. I really spent my whole summer with them. I was able to watch them grow socially, emotionally, and academically during their summer learning program. When the program, I found myself missing them so much.”
