HOPE FOR MORE CAMPAIGN

Hope For More

GROWING FAITH, ONE STORY AT A TIME.

Since 1959, Long Island Youth for Christ has been bringing hope to young people across our community.
Through faithful leaders, volunteers, and partners like you, God has moved powerfully raising up young leaders and drawing teens to Jesus across schools, neighborhoods, and juvenile facilities.

God Is Moving Now

We are in one of the healthiest seasons we’ve seen in years. We are strong financially and spiritually. This past year alone, more than 440 teens encountered the gospel of Jesus, and 36 said “yes” to Him for the first time.

But with more than 348,000 middle and high school students on Long Island, the mission ahead is clear: there’s still more to reach.

Our Three-Year Vision

Over the next three years, we believe God is calling us to expand:

  • 2026: Reach 600 teens, add new small groups in juvenile justice, and grow to four ministry sites.
  • 2027: Reach 750 teens, launch two new City Life after-school ministries, and expand to six sites.
  • 2028: Reach 1,000 teens, strengthen a full-time ministry team, and multiply to eight strategic hubs across Long Island.

More sites. More students. More stories of hope.
