The YMCA of Greater Boston presents the YGB Games, a corporate team-building initiative designed to support a corporate ethos of giving back. Through fierce competition for a great cause, the YGB Games fosters camaraderie among colleagues. Your team will face off against competitors from other companies to kill it in dodgeball or hoops while significantly improving the lives of youth and families in our communities by supporting the YMCA Branches that serve them.
The funds raised through the YGB Games supports the life-changing work and mission of the YMCA of Greater Boston. For over 170 years, America’s first YMCA has been committed to social issues through strengthening the physical, mental, and spiritual health of all in the community, including:
Served millions of meals and bags of groceries
Transformed branches into food and childcare sites
Operating pop-up Covid-19 vaccination sites
Demanding equity for all
Creating programs and spaces where everyone in the community feels seen, heard and safe
Launched emergency childcare for essential workers and provided summer learning centers
Providing job training for young adults and immigrant families
Housing homeless families
Offering Healthy Living programs for those struggling with chronic illness
Fitness centers in 13 branches throughout Greater Boston
Swim lessons for all ages
Summer camps for children and families that change lives
Positive Change. Community Transformation. Opportunity for Everyone. This is the work of the YMCA of Greater Boston – the work YOU make possible by taking part in the YGB Games.
