After two years in the making, the moment arrived in September 2011 for the opening of the Angel Youth Center (AYC). With the support from the Angel Charity for Children, Emerald Foundation, Tucson Conquistadores and the Northwest YMCA Board, the youth and parents in our community brought to life their vision. A vision of a happen' place to develop the potential of our youth through collaborative social, educational and creative activities.

The AYC is a dedicated space for youth and teens. Kids who go to the center have access to homework help, art classes, special events, fitness training, service projects, leadership training, sand volleyball, an outdoor basketball court and other programs and activities.
