The Westport Weston Family Y has been an enduring presence in downtown Westport for three-quarters of a century. This venerable social service institution has served as the nexus of community life - a true community center - for nearly eight decades.

For these 75 years the Family Y has been building strong kids, strong families and strong communities. The mission statement of the Family Y today speaks to this lofty purpose - to strengthen individuals in spirit, mind and body. The values represented by the Family Y today - Caring, Respect, Responsibility and Honesty - are those espoused by Edward Thomas Bedford, Westport businessman and philanthropist, when he founded the Family Y in town in 1923.

The Family Y serves all. No one is turned away for capacity to pay or ability to play. The Family Y is a proud partner of the United Way of Westport and Weston and an affiliate of the YMCA of the USA. The Family Y is a volunteer-governed charitable organization that is more than a collection of programs and activities - more than a gymnasium and a swimming pool.

The Family Y is part of a worldwide movement of YMCAs serving over 30 million people in 130 countries. Together the YMCAs in this country make up the largest non-profit community service organization in America.
