We work to support Christian discipleship, cultivate character, develop healthy life practices, and expand the scope of opportunities for youth.

The Foundation supports access to formative, Christian experiences, such as out-of-school-time (after school and summer) programs, camp, and mentorships, for youth in order to cultivate character, develop a healthy lifestyle, and expand opportunities available to them.

The Foundation supports organizations that provide youth with a range of activities that offer academic assistance, enrichment opportunities, and healthy lifestyle outcomes.

The hope is for youth to have experiences that instill moral character, introduce a Christian world view, and develop qualities of a Christian servant leader, such as humility and integrity.

The Foundation’s focus in youth experiences is primarily to:

  • Encourage Christian discipleship among youth
  • Create opportunities for moral and ethical character development
