The East Jerusalem Young Men's Christian Association (EJ-YMCA), founded in 1948, is a vibrant and integral part of the Palestinian social movement and a leader among Palestinian Non-Governmental Organizations. It is an independent, neutral, and professional organization affiliated with the global YMCA movement. As a member of the World Alliance of YMCAs, the EJ-YMCA is committed to a unique vision of community, based on the universal values of human dignity, peace, and justice.
Driven by its mission “to develop and empower youth and communities to reach their full potential in mind, body, and spirit based on Christian values,” the EJ-YMCA has become deeply rooted in Palestinian society. It runs a variety of programs based on local priorities in areas such as athletics, employment, rehabilitation, advocacy, youth participation, and women empowerment.
The EJ-YMCA operates three Community Centers in East Jerusalem, Beit Sahour, and Ramallah. These centers enhance the physical health of their members by providing access to sports facilities and activities. The revenues from these community centers contribute to the overall service provision of EJ-YMCA’s programs targeting youth, women, and children. Additionally, the EJ-YMCA manages a Vocational Training Center in Jericho, a Rehabilitation Center in Beit Sahour, the Women Development Program in Ramallah, and the Joint Advocacy Initiative, which reach different Palestinian cities and villages.
