YMCA means Young Men's Christian Association, and YWCA means Young Women’s Christian Association, are international organizations. Their primary goal is to put Christian rules and principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all. They built dormitories for young men and women in need of housing. The YWCA provided physical education for women and job training while YMCA encouraged and provided employment and houses for men in search of work.
