Come Join Us
Many years ago the good people of Union County had a vision for change within the community. The vision of a place where the needs of individuals, families, and young people could be addressed and fulfilled. That place has become the Union County Family YMCA.
Over the years the YMCA has been making a change in the lives of so many by addressing the most critical developmental, health, and social needs of our community. We understand that our young people are in very real need of activities that develop good character and values. We know that our community is facing some significant issues as it relates to health and wellness. We need a place where everyone can come together and all are welcome.
At the Union YMCA, our board and staff have made a commitment to continue changing lives in this community, but we know we can’t do this without YOU! We need the support of the entire community in order for us to make this happen. We ask that you “Come Join Us” as we continue “Changing Lives”.

Our History
The Union County YMCA was chartered in 1983 and moved to its current location in 1993. This YMCA is a true testament to community partnerships and the willingness of community leaders, staff, and volunteers to work together for the common good. The Union County YMCA is a private not for profit organization, governed by a volunteer board of directors and operated by a staff employed by the board of directors. As a 501 C (3) coded organization by the internal revenue service and annually registered with the South Carolina Secretary of State’s office, the YMCA is recognized as a charitable organization and can solicit contributions from the community to further that YMCA mission. The Union County YMCA is one of 900+ independent YMCA associations under the umbrella of the YMCA of the USA.
