The YMCA is a not-for-profit community based organization that has been in operation since 1844. We are a part of a world wide movement of independent organisations driven by common values.

Four words define the values of the YMCA, they are entrenched in the culture of the YMCA from day to day interaction with the public and staff to the reporting mechanisms of each department:

· Honesty
· Respect
· Caring
· Responsibility

YMCA accommodation facilities can be found all over the world in Australia, Asia, America and Europe.

Jewell House is managed by YMCA Perth as a revenue raising venture to support our other community programs. YMCA Perth offers services in a range of fields including:

Recreation, Childcare Services, Youth Services, Couseling & Training. For more information on these visit the YMCA Perth website at http://www.perth.ymca.org.au.
