The YMCA of Greater Toronto is a charity tackling the most critical social issues in the GTA. For more than 160 years, they have offered children, teens, young adults and families the opportunity for personal growth, community involvement and leadership. For its efforts to provide health and fitness services to its community, the YMCA of Greater Toronto Area (YMCA GTA) asked TechGuilds for help in redesigning its website targeted at those who are looking to join the YMCA gym as well as its existing members.
