YMCA Valletta, founded in 1976, forms part of the YMCA International Network and is a non-profit, voluntary and ecumenical movement seeking to promote the vision and build a more just society.

The organisation supports the positive development of youths as a preventive measure, as well as intervenes by offering a spectrum of social work services to individuals who are underprivileged or socially disadvantaged. The specialisation in this regard is support, assistance and rehabilitation of the homeless.
