Honorary Membership
Centenary Celebrations and Beyond

In the year leading up to YMI’s Centenary, a campaign introduced the concept of Honorary Memberships in exchange for a donation of USD 2,500. These contributions were directed to a dedicated Centenary Fund established to support worldwide Centenary Service Projects as part of the Paul William Alexander Legacy initiative.
Although the Centenary celebrations have now concluded, the initiative continues. Proceeds are now used to support extraordinary programmes and strategic initiatives of the movement.
Who can be an
Honorary Member?

The International Constitution provides a mechanism for the the Secretary General, with the approval of the International President, to confer on a person the status of “honorary” membership in recognition of their past or present assistance in the furtherance of the International Association of Y’s Men’s Clubs (Section III, Article 4).
Approved individuals, clubs, YMCAs, philanthropic organisations, corporations and other entities that make a donation of US $2,500 may be admitted to the Honorary Members Club.
What are the
Membership Benefits?
- Lifetime membership of the Honorary Members Club.
- An exclusive gold-plated Honorary Member pin.
- Complimentary VIP registration upgrade at all future International Conventions.
- Recognition in the prestigious Golden Book – the official record of Golden Deeds – and the website of Y’s Men International.
