University YMCA - University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

**Our Mission** The University YMCA develops campus and community leaders committed to social justice, environmental protection, interfaith cooperation and global engagement by fostering dialogue, reflection and action. **Our Pillars** **Social Justice** We respond to society’s most pressing needs by developing innovative community-based solutions to help all reach their full potential. We are committed to promoting meaningful social change through dialogue, action, and reflection. **Environmental Protection** We support and nurture tomorrow's environmentally conscious leaders and promoting clean, sustainable, and healthy communities. **Interfaith Action** We promote a different narrative and vision of religious diversity. We bring together those open to exploring and demonstrating how difference can be an asset when faith and action are united by a common purpose. **Global Engagement** Since launching our international programming in 1918, we have fostered the creation of dynamic, vibrant communities that are welcoming and inclusive.
