Toby Wells YMCA is a place for belonging. When you walk through our doors — whether you’re here for a workout, a swim, a group exercise class, a gymnastics class, dropping your child off at day camp, or spending time with friends — we want you to feel welcome and experience a genuine sense of goodness.

My connection to the Y is deeply personal. As a proud Clairemont local and a mom of two boys who grew up here, my family has experienced it all —preschool, camps, sports, after-school care and everything in between. I’ve seen firsthand the impact this place has on families and the way it brings people together.

This Y is a unique resource. We respond to the needs of our community with programs that support veterans, cancer survivors, aging adults, adaptive needs and more. Through our Positive Youth Development approach, we help every child reach their full potential. And to ensure access is never a barrier to belonging, we raise funds to provide financial assistance.

My focus is creating the very best experience for every person who walks through our doors. 

I’m inspired every day by the opportunity to expand access, create meaningful experiences and strengthen the sense of belonging for everyone we serve.
