Your Time and Talents Can Go a Long Way!

At the Y, we have multiple volunteer opportunities for both individuals and groups. Our Y volunteers come together from all walks of life with a shared commitment to helping others with their skills and expertise! Each year, thousands of youth and adults throughout the city and suburbs volunteer to help the Y provide critical services to families and communities. Without the help of our valued volunteers, the Y simply wouldn’t be what it is today.

What Act of Service Calls to You?

So, you’re considering volunteering at the Y? Fantastic! We welcome the skills and expertise you can provide to help others in our community. From youth sports to greeting members and sharing special skills to community engagement, there’s a volunteer opportunity for everyone. What matters most to us, is that you find a volunteer opportunity that is most meaningful to you!

If you’re interested in volunteering with the Y, you can connect with one of our membership centers, early childhood centers, or outreach programs across the metro Chicago area.
