There is nothing more rewarding than knowing our space served a higher purpose.

It was a privilege to host Life Abundant Ministries as they gathered in prayer for Bethelsdorp and the nation. At Y-Stay, we don't just provide rooms; we provide a sanctuary for community and connection.

A mother’s care is the ultimate sanctuary. At Y-Stay, we recognise the incredible strength it takes to lead a family and the gentle power it takes to nurture a soul.

We wish a peaceful and joyous day to all the mothers who make the world feel like a safer, brighter place.

Worker's Day may have passed, but the passion behind our mission never punches out.

We're a few days late to the party, but our gratitude for the hands that build, lead, and serve at Y-Stay and YMCA NMB is a year-round feeling. From our hostel staff to our youth facilitators, these are the people who turn your "stay with purpose" into real-world impact.
