Review for Young Life, Colorado Springs, CO, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I was a church kid and didn't understand YL until I became a volunteer leader in college. Once I caught this mission's vision for reaching out to broken, hurting kids, I was hooked. YL models its ministry after the ministry of Jesus -- going into the world of kids, developing relationships with them, and sharing the love of Christ through sharing their lives. I'm on my fourth year on staff with YL now, and there is nothing in the world I'd rather be doing than loving junior high and high school kids and teaching our rockstar volunteers to do the same.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

my own relationship with Christ. I've grown more through leading, volunteering, and working for Young Life than any other time in my life.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

watching the lives of kids and volunteers become radically changed by their involvement.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

men and women willing to lay their lives down for the sake of kids, the same way Jesus loves us.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

TRANSFORM THE WORLD. no doubt.
