Advocacy

Creating change for good

The Marshalltown YMCA-YWCA is your local partner for making a difference and creating positive, lasting change for the better of the entire community. We represent friends and neighbors and their need for a safe, healthy place to gather and play. We are vocal in support of important causes - whether it's helping end childhood obesity or protecting at-risk families. 

We accomplish this by partnering with area organizations, working with elected officials and listening to your needs. To join us in making Marshalltown a better place and learn more about how you can help, please contact us.

The Five Days of Action is a week designed to raise awareness and inspire adults to take action to protect children from sexual abuse.  For more information, click here:  www.fivedaysofaction.org
