The Y: We're for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Our Cause Defines Us Here at the Kettle Moraine YMCA, we know that lasting personal and social change comes about when we all work together. That's why, at the Y, strengthening community is our cause. Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors in Washington and Ozaukee counties to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. What We Do The Y is a powerful association of men, women and children from all walks of life joined together by a shared passion: to strengthen the foundations of community. With a focus on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility, the Y nurtures the potential of every youth and teen, improves the nation's health and well-being and provides opportunities to give back and support neighbors. Our Impact is Felt Every Day With a mission to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all. Our impact is felt when an individual makes a healthy choice, when a mentor inspires a child and when a community comes together for the common good. Our Values These are the shared beliefs and essential principles that guide our behavior, our interactions with each other, our programs and curriculum and our decision-making. • Caring - Show a sincere concern for others. • Honesty - Be truthful in what you say and do. • Respect - Follow the Golden Rule. • Responsibility - Be accountable for your promises and actions.
