If you don’t have the time for a formal committee role, we also need helpers we call the “Friends of Young Life” to play other parts in this effort. You will become a part of a community of dynamic staff, leaders and other adult supporters. In fact, you’ll end up with a front row seat for watching God work in the lives of kids.
FOYL serve in ways like:
- Prayer team — we entrust our success to the One we so passionately tell kids about, so if you have the desire to pray for us and with us, we are grateful.
- Event support — planning and executing fundraisers and informational meetings, from banquets to barbecues, from golf events to skeet shoots.
- Helping with financial support — local areas are financially supported almost exclusively by local families, businesses and churches, so we need help finding those people, engaging them and thanking them.
- Leader care — whether it is making them a meal or praying with them, we want our leaders working with kids to know they’ve got a team cheering them on.
- Community relations — when the right people know the right things about Young Life — from pastors to principals to parents — the mission takes root and grows.
- Logistical support — stuffing envelopes, data entry, accounting help, newsletter writing — you name it, we could use your skills!
