About Us
Growing to support you...

The Y serves both Valparaiso, Indiana and the surrounding townships or approximately 60,000 people. The YMCA has a membership of over 6,000 but serves 12,000 different people each year. Valparaiso is located in the center of Porter County, about 15 miles from Lake
Michigan and 45 miles from Chicago.

Our mission is to provide for lifelong personal growth and the development of a healthy spirit, mind, and body for all. No one is denied YMCA membership due to a lack of financial resources. Financial aid for memberships and programs is provided by YMCA members and other community donors through the Y's annual "Strong Kids" Campaign. No other funding sources address this need.

Operating Principles

  • We consider our community to include the broader worldwide community as well as our local service area.
  • We strive to provide a broad range of programs and services for all people regardless of their race, sex, age, physical or mental ability, religion or national origin.
  • Membership and program participation is open to all people regardless of their ability to pay.
  • We consider the family, no matter how defined, as our primary constituency, but do not limit participation to families only.
 

The YMCA building is located in the heart of Valparaiso, but provides services throughout the community. Our dedicated staff and board are deeply committed to the service of our members and are proud to offer a variety of programs that build spirit, mind and body for all.

No matter what amount you donate, your contribution plays an important role in our ability to give, build, and grow to meet our community’s needs. Help us reach our $15 million goal for a new YMCA facility by making a donation today.
