Based in St. Petersburg, Florida, the YMCA of Greater St. Petersburg operates as a nonprofit organization in the wellness and fitness services sector. Founded in 1920, it focuses on youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility, guided by a planning model that aims to align programs with community needs and organizational capacity. It runs four YMCA facilities and a network of programming sites across mid- and southern Pinellas County, including 25 before- and after-school locations, with a commitment to inclusive access—no one is turned away due to an inability to pay. It offers scholarship support to ensure equitable access to its programs. In October 2025, long-time president and CEO Jezek stepped down after 42 years with the YMCA, including 18 years in that leadership role.
