“The YMCA offers us an extraordinary example of that which has long been right and good about our country—that is, the tendency of Canadians to be concerned for others, and to want to help.”

YMCA Canada’s role

We foster and stimulate the development of strong Member Associations and encourage collaborative initiatives; protect and enhance the reputation of the YMCA; and advocate on behalf of Associations regionally, nationally, and internationally. Now at the end of year three of our five-year strategic plan, PLAN Y, we are working together to strengthen our impact, extend our reach, increase our capacity and build our brand.

Our Federation Structure

The Canadian YMCA Federation is made up of 50 Member Associations across the country that share a common mandate to advance the health and well-being of Canadians, with a special focus on children, teens and young adults. We’ve been uniting people behind this cause in one way or another since 1851, when the YMCA was first established in Canada. Today, 45 YMCAs and five YMCA-YWCAs in Canada offer programs and services tailored to their communities’ needs.

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together”. African Proverb

Bahadur Madhani, C.M.Chair, Board of Directors

Scott HaldanePresident & CEO, YMCA Canada

This annual report provides a brief snapshot of some of the work we’re doing across the country, together with our Member Associations. It will highlight specific stories of how the YMCA in Canada has impacted the lives of Canadians and their communities.

Over the past year, the leadership and expertise of 50,000 dedicated YMCA staff and volunteers have lent a helping hand to over 2.3 million Canadians in their journey to develop themselves in spirit, mind and body. In doing so, they have contributed to our overarching goal of building healthy communities.

Whether you’re just learning about the YMCA or have known it throughout your lifetime, we are confident that you will learn something new in the pages that follow. Canada’s YMCAs are always evolving to respond to the needs of the communities we serve, and to reflect the diverse and ever-changing nature of those who make up the YMCA.

If you haven’t already done so, join our movement to make Canada the healthiest place on earth. If you are already involved, thank you for your efforts and support. Your involvement makes a world of difference, and will help us go further together.

Thank you!

As a charity, the YMCA provides vital community services that are having a positive impact on some of Canada’s most pressing social issues—from chronic disease to unemployment, social isolation, poverty, inequality and more.

Central to our success are:

• The people who unite behind our mission and bring their many talents to our work;

• The safe and welcoming places we provide—from health facilities to classrooms to newcomer centres—that foster a sense of community; and

• The comprehensive community-based programs that provide the extra skills, opportunities and confidence that many individuals and families need to achieve their full potential.

Why the Y Matters.

1,700+

6,540 full-time staff and 15,650 part-time staff.22,190

volunteers contributed 1.3 million hours to support our mission.

27,800

people in more than 119 countries were supported by the global YMCA.

58 million

Page 6: YMCA Canada Annual Report 2014

These three critical resources, people, places and programs, come together at the YMCA to create a sense of belonging to a supportive network that has proven time and time again to help our members and program participants achieve their personal development goals, be they physical, mental, social and/or emotional. For some the impact can be truly transformational and can have an enormous ripple effect on those around them.

While we celebrate each of these personal achievements—it is the scale at which this happens that makes Canada’s YMCAs truly unique. Last year, we served 2.3 million Canadians in communities from coast to coast. This broad reach—and the fact that we’ve been doing this work for more than 160 years—are all part of the YMCA’s broader story of how we are building healthy communities.

Bringing People Together Makes a Positive Impact In a survey of their health and fitness members, the YMCA of Greater Vancouver, working with the Vancouver Foundation, found that people who have been with the YMCA for at least five years experience many benefits.

“Being a member of a gym is a commitment to oneself. Being a member of a YMCA means more than that. It means being a member of a community of people that genuinely care for one another and are committed to your success.” YMCA Member Participant

Did you know?In 1891, Luther H Gulick, M.D., proposed the red triangle for the YMCA logo, representing our focus on the growth of the individual in spirit, mind and body.

YMCA Programs and Services. We are much more than gyms, pools and camps. We know health is much more than just the absence of illness. Our programs and services are designed to go beyond the physical, and involve social, emotional and mental health.

YMCA Health, Fitness and AquaticsClose to 1.1 million Canadians became healthier through our health, fitness and aquatics programs. 610,200 were children, teens and young adults and 23,300 of them learned life-saving swimming skills.

YMCA CampsAs Canada’s largest camp provider, we helped 126,100 kids gain valuable life skills, boosting confidence and self-esteem. Of those, 1,780 were campers with disabilities who were able to participate fully in camp life, gaining new skills and developing friendships that last a lifetime.

YMCA Child Care As Canada’s largest child care provider, parents trusted us to nurture and care for 70,000 children.

YMCA Youth Engagement We helped 11,500 teens and young adults in our leadership programs feel prepared and confident to meet the demands and challenges ahead of them.

YMCA Employment ServicesRetaining meaningful employment is critical to health outcomes, and we helped 169,000 people develop the skills needed to apply and get a job.

YMCA Education & Training We helped educate 97,200 people on a variety of topics, such as language, literacy, and high school curriculum, bringing significant benefits not only to the individual but also to society.

YMCA Community & Global InitiativesMore than 142,000 people around the world benefited from Canadian YMCA support. In Canada we provided opportunities for 166,000 people to work together on internationally focused community programming.

Programs that empower people of all ages and stages(all stats reflect last year’s numbers)

We are a charity! • Last year, we provided $36 million in financial assistance to those who would otherwise be unable to access our programs and services.• We financially supported 270,000 people in 2014, positively impacting their health.• 21% of the children who participated in our Health and Fitness programs last year were able to do so through our financial assistance programs.• Last year, our YMCA Strong Kids Campaign raised $13.4 million across Canada so that every kid can realize their potential, regardless of their financial situation.

Page 10: YMCA Canada Annual Report 2014

Transforming Lives. We know that real change happens one personal transformation at a time, at all ages and stages, rooted in local communities. Research studies confirm that belonging to a supportive network significantly improves the health and well-being of individuals and families, whatever their age or life stage. Here’s a snapshot of lives we have helped transform:

10

For Scott, a 12-year-old with autism… Financial assistance from the YMCA of Okanagan not only helps him play after-school sports; he’s also building social skills and a sense of independence.

“I know when he works out here, he is safe.”Parent of Jake, YMCA of Niagara

“The Y encouraged my daughter to shine.”Parent, YMCA of Western Ontario

For Tony, a child care parent… “I knew my son was struggling and so did Ashley, the on-site supervisor at the YMCA of Oakville’s After School program. Instead of giving up on him, Ashley took the time to understand his emotional triggers and reactions. She explored ways to help him find the right fit with other kids and worked with us to develop a positive reinforcement system to help him learn how to communicate and cope with his feelings.”

Page 11: YMCA Canada Annual Report 2014

For Sofia, a teen mother on her own… At the YMCA of Greater Vancouver, Sofia found not only quality child care for her infant son but also personal support to build a new life: “I was inspired to follow my dreams, to graduate … I wasn’t alone anymore.”

For Eva, recovering from cancer and a stroke… “I was at the lowest point in my life,” she says. After experiencing significant health issues, Eva was so motivated to improve her health she became a part-time fitness instructor at the YMCA of Greater Toronto.

For the Kramer family… The YMCA of Hamilton/Burlington/Brantford was the place where Cecille attended a cycling class and made friends with Martha who soon became her daughter-in-law. Now Cecille, Martha, her husband Paul, their three sons, and her parents enjoy a three-generation Y connection.

“I feel supported, comforted and loved...I do not want to go anywhere else.”

Mara, YMCA of Greater Vancouver

The program “definitely changed my life. I know I have a great future ahead.”Eric, YMCA Alternative Suspension Program participant, YMCA of Greater Moncton

“I gave you a child broken by bullying and you built her back up.”

YMCA Camper parent, YMCA of Western Ontario

Extending our Reach for Greater Impact. Through the people, programs and places of the YMCA, we transform lives one individual at a time. When we amplify those transformations across Canada and around the world, we can have even greater impact tackling complex social needs.

Prescription to Get Active: The YMCA of Northern Alberta partnered with Primary Care Networks to lead a collaborative effort for people at high risk for health issues. Local physicians write actual prescriptions for healthy activities to improve health and prevent disease. Media reviews describe it as a “brilliant, innovative idea to make Canada healthier.”

YMCA, PHAC, and AIR MILES® for Social Change: This innovative partnership with the Public Health Agency of Canada and AIR MILES encouraged people to get more active, seeing a 61.6 per cent increase in visits when members were offered AIR MILES reward miles.

4Rs Youth Movement: Focused on issues of identity and its relationship to reconciliation between Indigenous peoples and Canadians, this movement unites 14 partner organizations and an engaged group of passionate young leaders. YMCA Canada’s participation builds on President & CEO Scott Haldane’s involvement as Chair of the National Panel on First Nation Education.

Strong Girls, Strong World project: YMCA Canada, YWCA Canada and Plan Canada, with support from Status of Women Canada, are collaborating to implement 10 young women- and girl-led projects across Canada. The projects will empower young women and girls to work with local stakeholders to address issues and barriers that impact young women in their communities.

YMCA Healthy Kids Day: This annual national day shone a spotlight on the importance of improving children’s health and well-being. YMCAs hosted community events promoting healthy, active lifestyles for children and families.

YMCA Peace Week: The annual week-long celebration of civic engagement included the presentation of over 100 YMCA Peace Medallions to individuals and organizations in recognition of their community-building work.

2014 emergency appeal responses: YMCAs respond when disaster strikes, and in 2014 the Canadian YMCA provided support to YMCA of Ukraine, YMCA of Sierra Leone, YMCA of Liberia and YMCA of the Philippines in their time of need.

YMCA World Council: Every four years the World YMCA movement comes together to discuss contemporary world issues. In 2014, 1,300 YMCA leaders from 83 countries came together at the YMCA of the Rockies (USA) for the 18th World Council. The focus was strengthening our global commitment to empowering young people everywhere, including the 28 million engaged with the YMCA.

Contributing our expertise We provided leadership to many other partnerships, including the Chronic Disease Prevention Alliance of Canada (CDPAC), the National Lifesaving Society, the National Youth Serving Agencies (NYSA) Committee, National Health & Fitness Day, CBC Live Right Now, and ‘Healthy Me Week’.

In addition to our core programs, the YMCA leverages its leadership and expertise to impact a wide range of issues. Here are just a few activities from 2014:

The YMCA played a significant role in supporting Canadian troops that served in the First and Second World Wars, providing recreational, educational, and moral support, as well as life-saving swimming skills.

Did you know?

In 1906, the YMCA launched the first “Learn to Swim” campaign with the goal of drown-proofing all kids.

We were proud to help grow the Canadian Pacific Railway. Many YMCAs were built alongside railway lines, offering railway workers recreation, reading rooms, literacy programs, night school classes and accommodation.

Three Canadian universities—York University, Carleton University and Concordia University— evolved from our YMCA education programs.

The YMCA grew up with Canada starting in 1851, changing and introducing programs needed by the communities it served; a practice that continues today.

In 1895, volleyball was invented by YMCA instructor William G Morgan.

Basketball was invented by Canadian Dr. James Naismith, working at the YMCA International Training School in 1891.
