Morrison YMCA Volunteer Projects
At the Y, we believe that when people come together for a common cause, the whole community is strengthened. When you become a volunteer, you have the opportunity to share your blessings with those who need it most. Volunteering with the YMCA is powerful because you’re not just joining a mission, you’re joining a community of like minded people who want to make a difference. There are so many exciting and meaningful ways to get involved and volunteer at the Y. Branch projects are listed below, if you are interested in projects going on throughout our association, Click Here.

Morrison YMCA Camp Interest
Volunteers interested in signing up for camp opportunities will sign up within this project to initiate the start of the camp volunteer process. Below is a brief breakdown of the process you should expect as you sign up to volunteer for Morrison Family YMCA Summer Camp: - Sign up for one of the Volunteer Orientations that are scheduled in for the Spring. Or, if you are signing up for one of our specific positions, such as First Week Summer Camp or Summer Camp Photo Team, you will be contacted to sign up for one of the orientations. - After you sign up for one of the Volunteer Orientations, you will be prompted to create a Volunteer Matters account ( if you do not already have one). - On your Volunteer Matters account, you may be prompted to complete a few of the requirements that we have for our Summer Camp Volunteers. Please make sure these are completed before you attend your Volunteer Orientation. - Attend your scheduled Volunteer Orientation. At this one-hour event, you will learn more about what is expected for Summer Camp Volunteers, learn more about which positions and week-long camps are available to volunteer for, how to check-in for your Volunteer shifts, and receive your Volunteer Tee Shirt. - After you have completed your steps, you will be invited to select your Summer Camp roles and shifts on Volunteer Matters. If you have any questions, please contact morrisonvolunteers@ymcacharlotte.org. We look forward to having you share your talents at our Summer Camp!
