Introducing The Circle

Today we're launching The Circle. It's simple. You give monthly, you vote four times a year, and together we fully fund one Young Life opportunity at a time.

Where this came from

The Circle didn't start in a boardroom. It started around kitchen tables, on walks, and in group texts among friends of Young Life. Several of them had been part of giving circles before, and they kept coming back to the same thing — giving is more meaningful, and more powerful, when you do it together.

They'd seen it work. What made those circles feel different wasn't the amount. It was the community, the shared decision, and the joy of watching something happen because a group of friends chose it together.

"The giving circles I've been part of changed how I think about generosity. It stopped being a transaction and started being something we do together."

Why Young Life

Young Life has been showing up for kids for decades, meeting them where they are and pointing them toward Jesus. Camps, club nights, leaders who stick around. When we asked where a circle like this could do the most good, the answer was easy.

How The Circle works

You become a member with a monthly gift. Four times a year, you'll receive the proposals by text and email, and you'll have one week to vote. Every member has one equal vote, no matter the amount. The opportunity that wins is fully funded from what we've pooled together, and you'll see the photos, the numbers, and the story of what your giving did. Cancel anytime.

The math is the fun part. The more of us who give together, the larger the pooled gift, and the larger the pooled gift, the more we can fully fund.

Together, one vote at a time

Nobody carries this alone. We're friends of Young Life, choosing together, and watching what God does when generosity is shared.

If that stirs something in you, we'd love for you to be one of our first Founding Members. Your gift and voice, multiplied.
