YFC Australia
Youth for Christ in Australia
came into being in the late 1940's and over the years
found many ways to express its love and concern for the young
people of Australia. The earliest work included large rallies
and camps, and more recently, has taken the form of high school
ministry, adventure programs and welfare work. Over the years,
working with full time, part time and volunteer staff, YFC
constantly sought new and exciting ways to bring Christ's
compassion and grace to the next generation.
Youth For Christ Australia is an organisation working with
respect and compassion to help young people achieve vision,
direction and a solid foundation for their lives. Each year
we contact and support over 35,000 Australian young people
through over 25 different programs. These are specifically
designed to encourage, equip and give purpose to each individual.
YFC have over 2500 staff and volunteers who work in conjunction
with local churches to tackle issues relevant to young people
including goal setting, drug abuse, sexuality, suicide, and
self-esteem. The organisation works specifically in the areas
of high school seminars, welfare, adventure based and multimedia
programs.
Australia YFC is very active in its over 13 centers in various
communities. This includes "Auslife" School Seminars; Be Real
Radio Show; Big Band Ministry; Camps; Discipleship Groups;
Family Mediation & Counselling; High Hoops Basket Ball; HipHop
Dance Clubs & Seminars and much more in an effort to reach
young Australians for Christ.
