Make a Difference at the Y
Volunteers play an essential role in helping the YMCA of Frederick County strengthen our community. Whether you’re supporting youth programs, assisting at special events, coaching sports, or lending a hand behind the scenes, your time and talent create meaningful impact. When you volunteer, you help ensure that everyone—regardless of background or circumstance—can learn, grow, and thrive. We welcome individuals, families, students, and corporate groups looking to give back in positive, lasting ways.
