Who We Are
Our Vision
Young Life in every county in the region by the end of 2030.
Through teams of volunteers, equipped and supported by paid staff, we will live out our calling to reach every kid by having Young Life in every county in the Western Great Lakes Region by the end of 2030.
Our Volunteers
669 volunteers who know 10,575 kids by name.
Young Life can be leaders can found on school campuses, at sports events, and at kids' favorite hangouts. In many cases, they are the only adult friends kids have in their lives.
Our Impact
121 active Young Life ministries in 18 of the 32 counties in the Western Great Lakes.
We are praying that God would open doors for us to build relationships with students at these schools.
Summer Camp
This past summer 938 kids & leaders from the Western Great Lakes Region experienced the best week of their lives at Young Life camp.
At camp, kids have the opportunity to step outside the everyday chaos to experience the love of Jesus and the joy that can be found in Him.
