Greater Houston
Annual Report 2010

Years
Dear Friends
The Houston YMCA was founded in 1886 by a group of earnest,
thoughtful businessmen who knew the city needed a safe refuge for young
men to call home. Throughout the past 125 years, the YMCA of Greater
Houston has changed in tremendous ways, but what has always remained
true is a simple mission: To put Judeo-Christian principles into practice
through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all.
The YMCA has made a promise to its community and it continues to lead
and collaborate with partners to empower, support and inspire people
to reach their fullest potential. As in the past, we were able to serve
our community this year with help from philanthropic Houstonians,
partnerships and community leaders. With these groups and individuals,
we opened the new Tellepsen Family Downtown YMCA in September
2010 and the Houston Texans YMCA opens its doors in January 2011.
More than 83,000 youth were able to thrive and feel a sense of belonging
through our 29 Caring Community Centers in local apartment complexes
and 1,004 participants and their families learned about water safety and
drowning prevention through our YMCA Water Wise program.
The Association generated $1.8 million through our capital development
efforts and $5.6 million from our annual Partners Campaign. And thanks
to our largest standing community partner, the United Way, we funded
$3.4 million in program needs. As a result of these efforts, more children
and families have a place of their own at the YMCA.
While we are proud of what has been accomplished and the impact that
the YMCA of Greater Houston has had on this community over the last
125 years, we know our story has just begun.

Youth
Development
Growing up, Gilbert Gonzalez
Y employee
He coasted through his years
in middle school, only putting
enough effort into school to
pass his classes.
It snowballed from there and
Gilbert got involved in many Y
teen programs including Youth
and Government. Those YMCA
role models talked to Gilbert about
his potential and he realized that
instead of just skating by in classes,
he should put in the effort and get
his grades up. He went from a
1.7 GPA his freshman year to a
3.5 his senior year and passed
seven AP exams.
told him, “See you
next time…”
didn’t know much about the Y
and what he did know went no
further than a group of guys
singing about how much fun
it is to stay there.
During his freshman year he
started mixing with a different
crowd that included gangs and
drug dealers. His mom worked
late and he often had to get rides
home from friends. One afternoon
he asked a friend to give him a
ride home and his friend agreed,
but told him he had a few drug
deals he needed to do on the way.
“I knew it was a bad idea and I
knew if I went down that path, I
would hurt my Mom,” Gilbert said.
He opted not to get a ride home
with his friend that afternoon,
which ended up being a positive
decision that changed his life.
He saw one of his classmates
talking with a YMCA youth
worker and Gilbert told him
he needed a ride home. The Y
employee offered to give him a
lift, but only if he stayed. When
he was dropped off at home the
Gilbert attributes it all to the
help and confidence the YMCA
gave him.
“I never see myself getting too
far from the YMCA. I’m not
sure I would have graduated
from high school if it wasn’t
for the Y,” Gilbert said.
Gilbert says that youth
involvement in the YMCA
is so important because the
organization teaches responsibility.
“They have helped me experience
things I never would have been
involved in otherwise,” he said.
Gilbert has completed one year at
Houston Community College and
started at the University of Houston
this fall, majoring in English. His
work has also been published in
the Houston Literary Review.

Youth Development
The YMCA has always
believed that all kids
deserve an opportunity
to discover who they are
and what they can be.
Throughout the history
of the YMCA of Greater
Houston, youth have
cultivated the values,
skills and relationships
that lead to positive
behaviors, better
health and educational
achievement.

YMCA camping has proven to be
a premiere program within youth
development. Houston started its
camping programs on the Bolivar
Peninsula in 1910 at Camp Sandy
Hook. The first camp owned by
the Houston YMCA was Camp
Ross Sterling, Jr., which was
donated by the Texas governor
in memory of his son, and opened
in 1924. Today Camp Cullen
operates off of Lake Livingston
and has become the hub of the
Houston Y’s residence camping.
Hi-Y was one of the first teenage
youth outreach programs in
Houston and began in 1919.
Leadership development and civic
involvement were components of
Hi-Y and the program continues
today under the name YMCA
Youth & Government.
Family programs were also
important in the development
of the Houston Y. The Y-Indian
Guides program began at the
Southwest YMCA in 1950 for
fathers and sons and was themed
after the American Indian tribes.
Over the years thousands of
Houston families participated.
The program eventually expanded
to include girls and was later
renamed the Y-Adventure Guides.
YMCA Child Care was another
important program in the history
of the Houston Y. Beginning in
Houston in 1972 at the Post Oak
(Trotter) Y, it was at the time
one of the original Y Child Care
programs in the nation. Last year,
more than 11,000 children had
a safe place to learn and play in
Houston YMCA child care centers.
Clockwise from top: Youth from
the YMCA participate in the Hi-Y
programs in 1947 at the Texas
Legislature; children and their

care programming at a Houston
Y; a father and daughter have some

Healthy
Living
While attending a health fair at
a local park, Blanca Gil found an
opportunity to help her family
overcome their struggle with
obesity and MEND was the answer.
“We came home from class one
day and I started to read all of the
food labels in my kitchen—I threw
out all of the food that wasn’t
healthy,” Blanca says.
The MEND (Mind, Energy,
Nutrition, Do it!) program is
dedicated to reducing global
overweight and obesity levels
and helps children and their
families become fitter, healthier
and happier by offering free
healthy living programs in the
local community.
The program focuses on
educating both the children
and their parents on eating the
right foods and getting the
proper amount of exercise.
At the fair, Blanca saw the MEND
advertisement and later called to
get more information. The Gil’s
were not living within a residential
area that was accepting program
participants, but were given an
exception and her then eight-yearold daughter, Maritza, started the
program in November 2009.
Blanca cannot believe how much
she has learned from the program—
the most important being how
to read labels and knowing
appropriate portion sizes.
Blanca will admit that at first it
was very hard for her family to
adjust. Her daughter wanted to
eat the chips and sugar-filled foods,
but over time she got used to the
change. So far, Blanca has lost
31 pounds, her husband has lost
10 and Maritza has lost seven.
Along with eating more healthily
her family started working out
together and now come to the
YMCA four times a week.
“I am so passionate about
this program that I’ve started
educating my extended family
on the importance of healthy
living,” she admits.
Her family has a long history of
diabetes and this was an important
step in reducing the risk for them.
The Gils say this is a lifelong
change for the family and it is
the first time they have followed
something that they have enjoyed
learning about.
“It is not a diet for us, but rather
something that will stick with us
for the rest of our lives,” she says.

Healthy Living

In Houston
communities, the
Y is a leading voice on
health and well-being.
With a mission centered
on balance, the Y brings
families closer together,
encourages good health
and fosters connections
through fitness, sports,
fun and shared interests.
Above: Two boys cool off at a
YMCA water park in the 1950’s.
By beginning to teach Houston
boys to swim in 1912, the
YMCA of Greater Houston has
provided hundreds of thousands
of Houstonians swim lessons,
ensuring water safety and allowing
them to feel confident around
the water. Because of the high
drowning rate in Houston and the
community’s need for water safety
education, YMCA Water Wise
was started. The program is
designed to educate the commun­ity about drowning prevention
and water safety, including
offering free swim lessons at
area apartment complexes.
In 1912 the Y and a handful
of Houston churches began a
partnership to create church
athletic leagues. Today adult
sports has a strong presence in the
Houston YMCAs and continues
to offer league sports for men and
women who want to have fun in
the camaraderie of others while
getting an excellent workout.
We know that older adults are
seeking more than physical
benefits when they exercise. They
also want a sense of community
and to strengthen social ties. In
response to this need, the YMCA
developed activities to encourage
older adults to take action and
get involved. The Active Older
Adult program began in 1976 as
a formal program and continues
today offering
day trips,
socials, exercise
classes and
a wonderful
opportunity
for life-long
growth and
health.
Youth sports is also an important
component of YMCA youth
programming. Soccer was
introduced to the Houston area
in 1970 and quickly became one of
the biggest youth sports programs.
Last year, more than 76,000 youth
participated in sports programs,
learning values and engaging in
healthy activities.

Social
Responsibility
Having won YMCA volunteer
have otherwise met. It has blessed
my life because I have had to find
places within myself that I didn’t
know existed.”
of the year for 2009 and now
nominated for Huntsville Citizen
of the Year for 2010, Brooke
Addams truly understands what
it means to be a volunteer for the
YMCA. Brooke has devoted 20
years of her life to volunteering
with five of those years on
the YMCA board and another
four coaching a YMCA youth
basketball team.
When Brooke is not volunteering
her free time at the Y, she spends
her days as a radio personality for
KSAM and KHVL in Huntsville.
She is able to keep the community
updated on Y events and spreads
the word of the Partners Campaign
all throughout Huntsville with a
great tool at her disposal—
the radio.
“I originally started helping the Y
because it was the right thing to
do, but now I do it because it’s a
way of life,” Brooke said.
When Brooke began volunteering
for the Y she understood the values
and importance for the community,
but did not have a good grasp of
much else. After having children
and introducing them to various
programs, she immediately noticed
the benefits and the impact it was
making on their lives.
Mother of eight-year-old Christian
and four-year-old Lizzie, Brooke
has been able to keep her children
involved with the Y and aware of
its values by keeping them active
in Y sports.
“Volunteering gives my family
what I consider an extended
family. It has introduced us to so
many people who we may never
“Brooke volunteers on many
different levels, from coaching
a basketball team to promoting
the YMCA on KSAM radio,”
Huntsville Family YMCA Center
Executive Sandra Clifton said.
“She volunteered her talents
and produced two live remotes
for the 2010 Partners Kick-Off
and featured five PSA announce­
ments on the YMCA core values
this year.”
“When you can give back you need
to,” Brooke said. “Every person
has some sort of talent or gift that
they can share with other people.”
“I have grown as a person, as
a mom and as a mentor being
involved with the Y,” Brooke says.
“The Christian values live up to
everything they say they do.”

Social Responsibility
From its inception, the YMCA
of Greater Houston has made
a promise to its community to
be there through the good times
and bad. In February 1886,
the community rallied together
to create a place where young
men, who had recently moved
to Houston, could live in an
atmosphere free of the negative
influences of the big city.
125 years later, the Y continues
to offer a refuge for youth and
families through its apartment
outreach programs. Apartment
complexes are transformed into
Caring Community Centers where
children thrive and feel a sense of
belonging to the YMCA located
within their apartment complex.
The Y has continued to find
new ways to serve the Houston
community throughout its history.
The YMCA’s South Texas College
of Law was founded in 1923 and
it continues to operate today in
Houston. In 1948, the YMCA
South Texas Junior College was
founded and was eventually
bought by the University of
Houston Downtown. Coming
full circle in formal education,
the YMCA of Greater Houston
became host of the Springfield
College campus in 2008 and
currently offers both bachelors
and masters degree programs.
The national YMCA movement
has always been world-wide in
scope and service and the YMCA
of Greater Houston has been no
exception. As early as 1913, when
the Houston Y had only $675 in
the bank, it found a way to support
a YMCA professional in Seoul,
Korea. This planted a seed for later
refugee resettlement and today,
YMCA International Services
thrives. Just last year 900 families,
totalling 8,300 individuals, from
26 different countries were
resettled into the Houston
community thanks to the work
of YMCA International Services.

Dear Donors
E
ach day the YMCA works toward building a healthy spirit, mind and
body for individuals of all ages and could not accomplish any of it without
the help and support from our donors and volunteers.
After 125 years, YMCA of the Greater Houston continues to serve more
than 800,000 boys, girls, men and women each year from 36 facilities
and hundreds of community sites. It is through your help that we’re able
to continue to provide opportunities for people to reach their highest
potential. We will remain a constant in serving the community
by continuing to meet the needs of a diverse city.
Your gift enables YMCA staff and volunteers to do what they love most—
care for children and their families. You help create a safe, healthy and
caring environment for people of all ages and backgrounds, which later
helps them become successful members of our community.
We are an organization that you can be proud to be a part of… as a staff,
member, volunteer or donor. While we have been a key contributor in the
Houston community for the past 125 years, we are only just beginning.
Thank you for being a part of our past, present and future.
