It began in 1854, with a small group of idealistic young men gathered to start the Young Men's Christian Association of Cleveland. What began as a group devoted to the doing of good deeds and the mission of spreading the gospel, has evolved into a community service and charity based organization committed to the promotion of diverse principles through the balanced development of mind, body and spirit in the Greater Cleveland community. From strong beginnings with founding members such as Henry A. Sherwin, Serano P. Fenn to philanthropists John D. Rockefeller, L.H. Severance and S.T. Wellman, the foundation of the Y's past has remained the blueprint of our future. Since its founding in 1854, the YMCA of Greater Cleveland has provided quality programs and services across an increasingly wide spectrum that encompasses fitness, education, civic service and community health and well-being.
