Why do we exist? Because Spokane is filled with thousands of at-risk young people and families that live in impoverished neighborhoods. Overlooked and hopeless, we are committed to give life to their story through relationships, holistic investment and empowerment.
Our focus is on three impoverished neighborhoods: West Central, Hillyard & Downtown. These are a few of the poorest neighborhoods in the state of Washington. The majority of the young people in these neighborhoods come from poor homes, live life without a father, are plagued by drug and alcohol abuse, experience significant loss, and feel hopeless. Despite the brokenness of their story, these young people are bursting with potential and demonstrate tremendous resiliency.
YFC is compelled by the love of Jesus to relationally enter the stories of these young people and empower them to change their own community for Christ.
