CHANGE THE HEADLINES.
We are also emboldened to continue putting our prayers into action. At Youth For Christ, we come alongside young people who are experiencing pivotal moments in their life. Many are feeling hopeless or overwhelmed and it’s our passion to make them feel seen, heard, and valued.
Jesus offers hope. We want young people to know God sees them, understands, and cares deeply. Your investment with YFC directly changes the lives of young people by providing authentic mentorship in these critical moments. In a world of chaos, your YFC leaders are stepping into the darkness and being a consistent voice of truth. We refuse to be unaffected or apathetic to this violence. Join us.
PARTNER WITH YFC.

RYFC Programs
All-Star Sports is a community collaborative sports program for youth ages 11-18. The purpose is to create an environment which fosters healthy relationships. Mentor/coaches, who are trained volunteers, encourage each player, coach basic skills and teach life principles.
God’s Girls provides girls from 6th to 8th grade a space where they can come together and learn that their purpose and identity is in Christ! Spending time and being coached by women who are seasoned in the Christian faith produces confident young women.
