The YMCA of Southwest Nova Scotia is a charitable organization committed to helping individuals grow in spirit, mind, and body. We are committed to eliminating financial barriers and providing everyone with the opportunity to participate in YMCA programs and services. A YMCA financially assisted membership offers access to the same facilities, programs, and services at a reduced rate.
Get started today! The YMCA will not deny access to anyone on the inability to pay. We encourage pay what you can.
