About Us

The YMCA of Auburn-Lewiston is a character-building organization dedicated to strengthening the principles of Caring, Honesty, Respect, and Responsibility through programs that will build a healthy mind, body, and spirit for all.

Our YMCA was incorporated as a charitable organization on February 17, 1868. Since that time, the Y has been dedicated to improving the lives of others. What began as a residence for young men working in local mills and factories has evolved to include a variety of cause-driven services focused on our mission of youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.

From those humble beginnings, the YMCA of Auburn-Lewiston has grown to over 4,000 members from across Androscoggin and Oxford counties. Each year, we give back to our community with over $200,000 in financial assistance, ensuring cost is never a barrier to participation. We are proud to be known as a safe place for all people, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, faith, or economic status.
