Rhys Barlow's Company Details
YMCA Central Inc is a not for profit organisation, committed to strengthening families and youth development. We are the recent amalgamation of the former YMCA of Greater Wellington Inc and YMCA Central Inc (Whanganui & Palmerston North) as well as YMCA Masterton back in the early 2000s.We're part of a global family, but proud to be 100% locally responsive to our communities as well as affiliated to the National YMCA of NZ. We operate in over 30 communities from Whanganui across to the Wairarapa and down to Wellington City. Our network is comprised of centres which are owned and operated by YMCA, and a number of programmes through partnerships schools, as well as others with central government agencies such as Ministry of Education and local government agencies.We reinvest into local communities through our philanthropic programmes and have strategic partnerships with funders and like minded organisations which allow all those unable but still willing to still participate in our programmes.Our facilities are a place for families. From babies to grandparents and everyone in between we offer a wide range of services with something for everyone in the family.We're over 150 years old, and our rich history mirrors the history of New Zealand. Dedicated work over many years has laid the foundation to continue our work reinvesting in local communities, now and for many years to come. We're here for good!Both YMCA facilities and programmes are regularly recognised through industry awards. We're a pretty big player as well – nationally YMCA is the largest provider of Out of School Care for school-aged children, the largest provider of residential camping facilities, and we run some of the largest sports leagues programmes nationally.
