YMCA OF ORANGE COUNTY IS EVOLVING.
The YMCA of Orange County is undergoing its largest transformation in history, evolving from a collection of separate locations into an integrated network of community hubs built around connection, belonging, and long-term impact. Driven by a county-wide loneliness crisis, growing senior and working-family populations, and a belief that true community requires more than a building, the Y is reimagining what it means to serve Orange County for the next 100 years. From the ongoing renovation of the Fullerton Family YMCA to the newly opened South Coast Metro location, and the ambitious Newport-Mesa campus planned to include aquatics, youth enrichment, intergenerational spaces, senior housing, and a purpose-driven café — the Y is designing places where generations connect, families thrive, and everyone belongs. This isn’t a reinvention. It’s a reigniting of purpose.
DISCOVER OUR PROJECTS
The Newport-Mesa Family YMCA is being thoughtfully reimagined as a vibrant, inclusive community hub designed to inspire healthy living, lifelong learning, and meaningful connections. Nearly tripling in size, the expanded 50,000-square-foot campus is rooted in the YMCA’s core mission to strengthen spirt, mind and body for all.
As part of our ongoing commitment to providing the best possible experience for our members, the Fullerton Family YMCA began renovations in June 2025. These upgrades and improvements will bolster our current foundation and will enhance our facility and ensure it remains a welcoming space for fitness, connection, and community for years to come.
We are in conversation with companies, foundations, and individuals about the community revival. Partnership and investment opportunities are available across Newport-Mesa, Fullerton, and throughout Orange County. We would like to talk with you.
