Young Life exists to introduce adolescents to Jesus Christ and help them grow in their faith. Our adult leaders (college and older), build bridges of friendship with middle school students, high school students and students with disabilities, that they might invest in them and show them who Jesus is. Young Life is a place for all kids to belong and to consider what a relationship with Jesus might be like.

FUNDRAISING GOAL: $10,000
Programs Supported by Your Donations
This week we are raising money to help scholarship students to go to our Young Life summer camps. This summer we will take over 100 students from Mercer County to Young Life summer Camps in New York and Virginia. Money is a hurdle for many students and we don't want them to miss out on experiencing a week they will never forget. At Young Life Camp they will make incredible memories, and will also get to hear the Gospel laid out clearly to them! Many kids experience Jesus in a new and personal way!
Needs that Cannot beMet without Your Help
We believe we could take more kids to camp each year, but the cost make it difficult for many of our Mercer County students who cannot afford it. The cost of things continues to increase (food, busses, etc..), so camp will continue to get more expensive each year. We hope to raise enough money each year to cut the cost of camp and scholarship any students who has the need.
