Y Care International is the international relief and development agency of the YMCA in the UK and Ireland.

We work in partnership with YMCAs across the developing world, funding and supporting grassroots development programmes in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East. We use local YMCAs' expertise to develop programmes that local people need.

In the UK and Ireland, Y Care International works with the general public and within the YMCA movement to raise awareness of and interest in international issues, through Global Youth Work and facilitating young people's involvement in its campaigning and lobbying.
