George ,W iiliams· founded the first YMCA in London,
England, in June of 1844. Mr. Williams, was a clerk in a
store. He brought together 11 young : men.- They met to
pray and study the Bible. One of the men who met with
the group ' was Christopher Smith. He suggested the
name, "Young Men's Christian Association". Today there
are Y's in 80 countries through out the world. The "Y"
has five million members in over 10,000 YMCAs.
Thomas V. Sullivan began the first "Y" in this country
in Boston. He was a retired sea captai~ who did missionary work along the waterfront. Thirty young men came to
the fi rst meeting on Dec. 15, 1851. The object of the
group was to improve the spiritual and mental condition
of men.
Today's motto bf the "Y" is "Spirit, Mind, Body." The
lIy" program hopes to give young people a better outlook on life by developing character.
