YMCA South Australia joins SEA

The Sports Environment Alliance (SEA) is delighted to welcome YMCA South Australia (YMCA SA) as the newest member of the organisation. 

YMCA SA Chief Operations Officer, Andrew Mundy said “At YMCA South Australia we believe that conservation and environmental responsibility are integral to our mission for all people to grow in body, mind and spirit.  The YMCA believes that we should all commit and take action for the protection and regeneration of our planet.”

He added, “It is important that the sport industry has collective leadership in this space. The Sports Environment Alliance provides an important vehicle for like-minded organisations to encourage climate action, share ideas and resources, and to demonstrate our responsibility in this regard.”

The YMCA SA has implemented a number of energy, water and waste - saving initiatives, and solar electricity installations across its services. YMCA SA’s aim is to clearly articulate its sustainability objectives and targets, and how they will achieve them. 

SEA Consultant CEO Katherine O’Regan stated that SEA is ready to build a strong relationship with YMCA SA and help it achieve its environmental sustainability goals.

“The YMCA is such a pillar of the sport and recreation community and we look forward to assisting the organisation in becoming an environmental leader in the industry”, she said.
