3. Message from the YMCA Board Chair and CEO
We become what we think about and what we talk about…
In 2000 our YMCA developed, approved and launched its 10-year plan. 2010 marked the completion
of that plan.
How did we do over this past decade?
• We set out to double the number of people served by our YMCA to 90,000. We achieved 85,000.
• Our $5.3 million expansion of the Jamie Platz Family YMCA in 2003 doubled the number of people served in that branch to
over 7,000.
• The opening of our $26 million Don Wheaton Family YMCA late in 2007 grew our membership in downtown Edmonton by
nearly 400% to 5,000.
• Our child care operation has grown by 300%, serving nearly 3,000 children in our 33 centres in the Capital Region and the
community of Grande Prairie.
• We upgraded our Castle Downs and William Lutsky Family YMCA Centres to stay relevant and serve more families. We now
serve more than 14,000 members in the two branches.
• We have continued to develop partnerships; new memorandums of understanding (MOUs) have been signed with
Capital Region Housing Corporation, Edmonton Catholic Schools, the Town of Beaumont, Tribal Chiefs Venture Inc.
and the YMCA of Wood Buffalo.
• In partnership with the City of Edmonton, Alberta Housing and Urban Affairs, Capital Region Housing Corporation
and the Boyle Street Community League, we completed our many years of planning for our progressive housing and
community revitalization initiative and construction of the YMCA Welcome Village is now underway. When completed in 2012,
more than 300 families and individuals will be housed. This is our role in the 10-year plan to end chronic
homelessness in our community.
These achievements are a testament to a very large committed team of volunteers, donors and staff members
who helped to articulate a vision that, at the time, many of us felt almost impossible to achieve. But through many
conversations, plans were developed, resources were found and the vision became a reality. It is with a deep sense
of gratitude and appreciation to a long list of individuals and organizations in the community that we end 2010. The belief,
commitment and personal investment of time, talent and treasure was the brick and mortar of all that the Y has
accomplished.
Our discussion now turns to the next 10 years. We are refreshing our strategic plan. Our conversations are informed
by new realities, both nationally and locally. The success of the YMCA is achieved through the engagement of the
community. We look forward to the input that will ensure the relevance of our YMCA for the next decade. Our words
can and will shape our future.

4. The YMCA of Edmonton: A History in Confronting Homelessness
A perennial figure in our city’s fight against homelessness, the YMCA of Edmonton has provided housing to people in need since 1908.
The original downtown facility, beyond being the first YMCA fitness centre to open in Edmonton, also provided housing
to individuals, couples and families seeking temporary shelter. And while the old fitness centre was eventually closed
in favour of the four family fitness centres found across the city, the YMCA of Edmonton continues to provide housing
through the downtown building.
When it first opened, the Downtown YMCA contained forty bedrooms and served single young men, most of them
newcomers to the city. Since then, the facility has grown to accommodate a wide range of individuals who require
safe, affordable and flexible accommodation. Today, the 106-room, four-floor housing facility also assists women,
families, tourists and individuals with physical and mental needs. The needs for supportive housing vary from resident
to resident; some may only stay for a night or two while others may stay a few months while they look for work or
recover from a personal crisis. Others still may require housing on a more long-term basis due to special needs that
might interfere with their capacity to be self-sufficient. Regardless of who they are or what their needs might be, the YMCA of
Edmonton will continue to be a refuge for individuals and families that require shelter, support and guidance.
Fully committed to ending homelessness in Edmonton, the YMCA of Edmonton continues to work with community
organizations and the various levels of government in discussing housing policy, funding, and action related to
improving housing services and programs. The YMCA of Edmonton is, or has been, active on the City of Edmonton Task
Force to End Homelessness, the Edmonton Coalition on Housing and Homelessness, the Shelter Opinion Strategies and
the United Way’s community consultations regarding homelessness.
Presently, the YMCA of Edmonton is working with the City of Edmonton, Capital Region Housing Corporation and the
Boyle Street Community League in the construction of phase one of the Boyle Renaissance, a community redevelopment
that will introduce affordable housing and a range of services and programs into the Boyle Street area. The YMCA of
Edmonton is currently engaged in a fund-raising campaign to gain capital support for its part of the project, the YMCA
Welcome Village. The Welcome Village consists of a 150-unit affordable housing facility, a licensed YMCA Child Care Centre and a
YMCA Family Resource Centre.
The YMCA Welcome Village is one of the YMCA of Edmonton’s most ambitious projects yet—a collaborative solution to address
the issue of vulnerable housing in Edmonton. It is a holistic approach, and one that addresses the needs of an individual
beyond their immediate need for housing. With services and programs in place to offer a far-reaching support network
for community residents and downtown Edmontonians, the YMCA Welcome Village will be a vibrant and sustainable
addition to the Edmonton community.

5. YMCA Welcome Village Groundbreaking
On November 24, 2010, the YMCA of Edmonton, together with the City of Edmonton, the Province of Alberta, Capital
Region Housing and the Boyle Street Community League, participated in the groundbreak for Phase 1 of the Boyle
Renaissance, a $42.5 million community redevelopment project.
There to turn the first sod were Jane Batty, Ward 6 Councillor; Jonathan Denis, Minister of Alberta Housing and Urban
Affairs; Jackson Roth (child care participant); Franco Savoia, YMCA of Edmonton’s President and CEO; Mayor Stephen Mandel;
and Thim Choy, Boyle Street Community League President.
The construction of Phase 1 is projected to be completed in early summer 2012.
“The YMCA of Edmonton is thankful for the support it has received for its vision of the Welcome Village: a centre of the
community where families, couples and single adults are warmly welcomed and have the supports they need,” said
Franco Savoia. “Without the support of our many partners and supporters, this vision could not have been realized.”

6. Child Care Continues to Grow
Children are like sponges – they watch and absorb knowledge, skills and values from everything and everyone around
them. That’s why YMCA child care programs focus on holistically nurturing child development by providing a safe and
healthy place to learn foundational skills, develop healthy, trusting relationships and build self-reliance through the
YMCA values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
2010 was another busy year in child care for the YMCA of Edmonton. Due to overwhelming demand for quality child support
in the area, four new YMCA Child Care Centres opened up in the St. Albert, Terwillegar, Rutherford and Carlton areas as
requested by the Edmonton Catholic and Public School Systems. This brings the total to 33 YMCA Child Care Centres
serving over 3,000 children in the Edmonton Capital Region and Grande Prairie.
A national leader in non-profit child care, the YMCA Child Care Centres are staffed with people who understand the
cognitive, physical and social development of kids, the need children have to feel connected and supported in trying
new things, and the caring and reinforcement parents and families need to help each other. Parents can leave their
children with the peace of mind knowing that they are in the care of professional workers at a fully accredited and
licensed facility.
Additionally, every YMCA Child Care facility undergoes the lengthy accreditation process, a voluntary process that requires
great dedication from the child care staff and guarantees the highest level of quality in child care. An accredited
centre surpasses the standards required for provincial licensing and receives extra funding, money that goes towards
further enriching the experience of the child by improving facility equipment, providing extra-curricular activities and
assisting in the professional development of staff.
In YMCA Child Care Centres, babies develop trust and security, preschoolers experience early literacy and learn about
their world, and school-age kids make friends and learn new skills. Most importantly, children learn how to be their
best selves, making for confident kids today and contributing and engaged adults tomorrow.

7. YMCA World Council—The World Comes Together
In August 1855, just eleven years after George Williams founded the YMCA in London, England, the first YMCA
World Council occurred. Initiated by Henry Dumont, the Secretary of YMCA Geneva who would later
go on to win the Nobel Peace Prize, the World Council was an opportunity to allow YMCAs to come
together from across the world to share ideas and collaborate. Held in Paris, the first conference took
place over five days and involved almost one hundred delegates from nine countries. It was a critical
chapter in the history of the YMCA, foreshadowing the rise and growth of the organization as a truly international
movement.
Fast forward to 2010, where the YMCA World Council is now in its 17th iteration, and the number of
people in attendance has grown exponentially. Hosted by the Hong Kong YMCA, this year’s World Council saw
900 delegates from over 85 countries participate. Three representatives from the YMCA of Edmonton made
the long journey to take part in the conference, joining their fellow Canadian colleagues to make up
the 35-member delegation from Canada. The three participants consisted of Janet Giles, Vice President
of Management Resource Centre for the Prairie YMCAs; Carlo Dimailig, a youth leader at the Castle
Downs Family YMCA; and John Lilley, Past Chair of the YMCA of Edmonton Board of Directors.
Occurring only once every four years, the YMCA World Council is a special opportunity for YMCAs to address global
issues, like poverty, hunger, climate change, and gender equity. With its emphasis on promoting youth
advocacy and leadership, the World Council provides a platform for aspiring future leaders to take
part in an international dialogue and help chart the course of the YMCA into the new millennium. Amir
Dossal, Executive Director of the UN Office for Partnerships and keynote speaker for the event, had
this to say: “It is the indispensable work of organizations like the YMCA that truly make Millenium
Development Goals possible. Especially in the digital age, youth movements are among the most
dynamic actors in creating positive change.” The YMCA of Edmonton is proud to have attended the YMCA
World Council and be a part of this fantastic collaboration on international advocacy and youth development.

8. YMCA Ukraine—Making Something From Nothing
In 2009, the YMCA of Edmonton and the YMCA of Winnipeg joined the YMCA of Calgary in their international partnership
with YMCA Ukraine. YMCA Ukraine has been in existence since 1993 and has gone through many iterations; they now
have a national office & 19 local YMCAs to serve a population of over 2 million people. All of the YMCAs in Ukraine are run solely
by volunteers; there are 3 paid staff in the country. There are no YMCA owned buildings, so programming is delivered on an
outreach basis and done wherever they can find space.
The Ukraine organization has evolved in structure and democratic processes and the 3 Canadian YMCAs are currently
partnering in the cities of Lviv, Lutsk and Verkhovyna. In September 2010, Annalise Yuzda, General Manager of YMCA
Child Care, travelled to Ukraine along with 4 others from Winnipeg and Calgary to attend their Annual General Meeting
and to observe the programming in action.
Main programming includes:
• Youth Leadership
• HIV-AIDS prevention (Despite an overall slowdown in the spread of HIV in the world, in countries like Ukraine, the prevalence of HIV
continues to grow - largely due to a lack of targeted prevention programs.)
• Scouting as a system of educating a person
• Ten Sing (This is a youth work method with an emphasis on the performing arts, youth empowerment, diversity and open-
mindedness.)
• Camps
• Sports (Floorball, Aikido)
• Social local projects “With practically no resources, the YMCA
Ukraine has literally made something from
nothing… what an experience!”
- Annalise Yuzda

9. YMCA Youth Exchange—A Unique Partnership
From July 25th to the 30th, 2010, sixteen youth from the YMCA Youth Exchange
program—eight from YMCA of Edmonton and eight from the Mississauga,
Ontario YMCA—took part in an important home building project established
through a special partnership between the YMCA and Habitat for Humanity.
Recruited by YMCA Youth Advisors, these sixteen youth came from various
YMCA programs such as YTP (Youth Transitions Program) and ASIST (Alternative
Suspension Program) as well as through the YMCA Family Centres. The
youth raised funds to support a construction project in Spruce Grove and
participated in the building of the home by providing a portion of the labour.
“I just realized I’m building some kid’s closet. That’s so cool.”
