Voices of Young Life
My two kids were introduced to Young Life in middle school. Your entire organization reflects excellence. I know there's a lot of volunteer support for Young Life and I see how hard your people work. - Art, Virginia

 
Young Life in Action
 
 
 
Camping
Young Life camping involves high adventure, lots of fun, great food and excellent speakers who understand and respect high school and middle school kids.

At Young Life's camps in North America, kids are treated to resort-quality facilities for which Young Life has become known. As Young Life's worldwide outreach continues to grow, our camping program is expanding as well, with Young Life-owned or leased camps in a number of international locations. Regardless of the facility, the experience is the same — kids getting away from the pressures of everyday life, having fun with friends and their Young Life leaders, and hearing the message of God's love in terms they can understand. And Young Life camping is open to kids who often are overlooked: those from economically depressed communities, kids with disabilities and teenage mothers.

Each year, more than 100,000 kids around the world spend a week or a weekend at Young Life camp, having an experience that many describe as the best of their lives.
 
In Their Words
God has treated me in a special way. I think He saved me from having drowned my life away ... the activities at camp made me reflect, and I realized that Christ is with me.

– Aldo, Costa Rica
