Many people have heard of the YMCA, in fact in a recent survey shows that 90% of those asked knew of the YMCA. However, less than 2% of people have any idea of what we do and the impact we make in our local community. YMCA Cambridgeshire and Peterborough is part of a federation of 114 YMCAs across the United Kingdom and our charity aim is: To enable young people to grow to their full potential by participating in a supportive and inclusive community, through our housing, youth work, health, fitness and other programmes”.
A key part of delivering our charitable aim is to work in partnership with local businesses and we are currently looking for new charity of the year partnerships.
So if you are currently looking for a new charity to support or simply looking for a few ideas on how your staff can support local people through a key local charity we would love to hear from you.
