History
Established in 1876.
The YMCA of Greater Seattle is the Northwest’s leading nonprofit organization strengthening communities through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Founded in 1876, we enhance the lives of more than 200,000 people annually through 13 branches, two overnight camps and more than 200 program sites throughout King and south Snohomish counties.
Meredith Mathews was Branch Executive for our East Madison YMCA from 1957 through 1965. That year, he was named the first African American Pacific Region Associate Executive for the YMCA of the USA. He retired from the YMCA in 1976 after 39 years of service. The branch was renamed in his honor in 1993 after a major renovation and expansion project. Meredith passed away in the late 1990s, but he still has family in the Seattle area. In fact, last spring his grandson was honored with a YMCA Black Achievers Scholarship to attend college.
