Dr.
Boonreum Singhanetr, YMCA Committee Chairman,
and Mr. Vorakit Kantakalung, Coordinating
Secretary founded the YMCA of Chiang Mai on
January 10, 1970. A commercial building was
rented at the Night Bazaar to be the office.
The office was later moved to Charoenprates
Road, and in 1977 it moved to its present
location. Dr. Boonreum and Mrs. Kuenkam Signhanetr
donated the land for the current location.
The opening ceremony for the building took
place on January 23, 1977, at which representatives
of the king were present. The activities of
the association have gradually increased,
making the original office insufficient to
serve all members.
Therefore the following YMCA branches have
been established:
1.
YMCA Saohin, established in 1984
103 Koklang Road, Nonghoi Sub-district Muang
District,
Chiang Mai Province 5000
2.
YMCA Chiang Rai, established in 1984
70 Phaholyothin Road, Rimkok Sub-district
Muang District, Chiang Rai Province 57100
Land donated by Ms. Orn-Anong Paowattana
3.
YMCA Lamphun, established in 1985 at No.6
Sanpayang Road, Muang District, Lamphun Province
51000
4.
YMCA Sankamphaeng, established in 1988
111 Theppabutr Road, Sankamphaeng District,
Chiang Mai Province 50130
Land donated by Ms. Chansom Chinnawat
Activities of the five related centers - Santhitham,
Saohin, Chiang Rai, Lamphun, and Sankamphaeng
- conform to the policies of the international
YMCA organization.
