Social Impact

YMCA Social Impact is the charitable arm of the Y Brisbane and officially operates as Y-Care (South East Queensland) Inc. Our vision is to be an unbreakable organisation that maximises impact across all of our programs. We are a team consisting of more than 160 staff and 120 volunteers that believe in the power of inspired young people. We operate multiple programs within four key service streams including:

• Community Housing
• Food for All (Schools’ Breakfast Program)
• Social Enterprise (Op Shops and Salon)
• Youth Education and Empowerment (Vocational School, Community Hubs, School-Based Mentoring, and Skilling Queenslanders for Work)

The Y Social Impact team works to address a diverse range of needs across an extremely large area. It is only with the help of our supporters and partners that we can continue to make a big impact.

Many of the businesses and organisations in our community choose to show what’s important to them by investing significant resources to transform lives – now and in the future. To all our supporters, past, present, and future, THANK YOU!
