Hospitality is essential. Greet, welcome, and assist members with tours of the Wellness Center; wipe down equipment as needed; check with members to ensure their needs are being met; update member communications such as signage.

Volunteer needs vary with each event, but typically involve volunteer and participant recruitment, registration, greeting, data entry and logistics, set up, and tear down.

Volunteer Coaches are needed for youth sports such as soccer, basketball, and baseball. Coaches and Buddies are also needed for the Miracle League, a baseball league for children with special needs. Character development and good sportsmanship are emphasized in all YMCA instructional youth sports.

We’ve kicked off a new project at the CGC: Treeforestation. We started this reforestation project to save and protect Cincinnati’s green spaces. We will begin by having a series of invasive removal workdays, and then will begin planting native trees. This is an ongoing project, and we could use your help!

Help with annual special events such as Oktoberfest, Art Ball, or special projects.
