ABOUT YMCA EUROPE
YMCA Europe is a working fellowship to strengthen movements where people grow in body, mind and spirit.
The European Alliance of YMCAs (EAY) is relatively recent. It was created by several national YMCAs in 1973 with the purpose of setting a collective direction of the European movement and strengthening the work of the YMCA across the continent. Soon the initiative was followed by other national movements and an official structure of volunteers and staff was created.
