Careers and Volunteers

At the Y, you can turn your passion into a lifelong career or a part-time job, helping us deliver positive change in our community.

Every day, our team– of all ages and from all walks of life – works to help better our community by nurturing the potential of youth and teens, improving the health and well-being of individuals, and providing support to our neighbors. Join our team!

At the Y, we are Welcoming, Genuine, Hopeful, Nurturing, and Determined. We are change makers. Imagine working for an organization whose cause is to strengthen the foundations of community through youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. Our cause drives everything we do.

Share your time. Strengthen your community.

Make a difference close to home by volunteering at the Ottawa YMCA. Share your skills, meet new people, and help create a welcoming community where everyone can belong and thrive. Tell us about your interests and availability so we can explore opportunities that fit you.
