The YMCA of the Palouse is a 501 (c)(3) organization and has a 14-member Board of Trustees and a variety of community youth programs. Chartered at Washington State University on November 20, 1894, the YMCA has started many campus initiatives using student volunteer leaders (ie. housing, new student orientation, community service) now provided by the institution.
