Getting Involved at the YMCA


Based in Ft. Myers, Florida, Steve Koeppel is a civil trial attorney with Yeslow & Koeppel PA, where he has tried more than 70 cases to verdict. Away from his work as an attorney, Steve Koeppel is a volunteer basketball coach at the YMCA.

The YMCA is a nonprofit with a long history of working to bring about personal and social change by strengthening the community. To achieve these goals, the YMCA relies on contributions of both time and money from the community.

There are many ways to get involved. Anyone can easily support the organization and also reap the benefits of its services by signing up for a membership. Those who are able can also make a financial contribution of any size to help the YMCA with its work in promoting youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.

Another way to help is by volunteering. Volunteers play a crucial role at the YMCA through efforts such as coaching sports teams and teaching classes and raising funds to keep the organization thriving. Other opportunities include participating in various committees or serving on the board of directors.
