From the late 1960s through today, the Gateway Region YMCA has developed and maintained long-term international partnerships with the Colombian Federation of YMCAs, Belize YMCA, Ukraine Federation of YMCAs, Porto Alegre Brazil YMCA, Temuco Chile YMCA, and U.S. Coalition of YMCAs supporting South Africa.
Our involvement in these partnerships has taken the form of fundraising and travel to support cultural exchanges, teen trips, mission work, education advancement, and active involvement in efforts designed to support the global mission of the YMCA. https://gwrymca.org/ymca-world-service International understanding, fostering world peace, and developing relationships with others is what we do at the Gateway Region YMCA.
