Because Young Life areas are financially supported solely at the local level, donors are vital to Young Life. Without their support, Young Life would not be able to hire and train staff, provide essential administrative support to the area or help send kids to camp.

We are committed to introducing adolescents to Jesus Christ and helping them grown in their faith. Young Life also aims to establish and maintain a presence at all high schools and middle schools in the local area. The way we are doing this in our corner of New Jersey is guided by two principles: 1) Prayer: Above all else we recognize prayer as our source of personal power, direction, and encouragement. Staff, Leaders, Committee, and a host of friends are committed to seeking God's guidance when it comes to this great work we call Young Life 2) People: While our programs are excellent - we believe that our best growth happens when we place people above our programs. Whether it's kids or adults, we invest our time in lives so that we are the kind of ministry that is filled with healtly people who love Christ and are equipped to do the task they are called to do.

We believe that in order to reach kids we must go where they go and enter their world. Every week in our local area, Young Life staff and volunteers can be found at school events and practices and at kids' favorite hangouts. In many cases, they are the only adult friends kids have in their lives. Our work could not be done without your support. We are grateful for your gift to Young Life. Thank you for all you do to help us reach generations of kids who desperately need to hear a message of hope.
