THANK YOU for making this Giving Tuesday one of our most successful ever!

Together you surpassed our $20,000 goal! With Thrivent’s generous match of $1 for every $2 raised, plus the additional $1 for every message left on the giving portal, the total amount benefiting local youth is over $31,325. 

We cannot express how grateful we are to a community who faithfully and generously partners with God to bring resources and hope to the young people of Pierce County. 

Your participation impacts individual kids and leaders at a local, personal level. These funds can be used for resources to support and develop leaders, supplies for clubs, trip costs, small groups and Bible studies, or coffee or lunch with a kid who just needs to talk. 

Aside from watching your generosity pour in throughout the day, one of the most heartwarming things to witness was the comments people left as they visited the site or gave:

“I accepted Jesus for the first time at a Youth For Christ meeting in High School.”

‘I like that these funds go to youth in my hometown.”

“We love the authentic relationships that are built with the youth of Pierce County by TYFC’s caring and faithful staff and volunteers.”

“There is nothing more important than young people.”

“YFC has made a positive impact on my own family.”

“I love how YFC shows the love of Jesus to youth all over Pierce County. Thank you to Thrivent for partnering!”

You were involved in something big. Bigger than Pierce County. Bigger than us. 

Over $1 million raised, over 400,000 participants, and 26 organizations impacted across the country through Thrivent‘s Giving Tuesday matching opportunity.  

Our work doesn’t stop after just one day of the year, and we know your heart for local youth doesn’t either. Every day people are mentoring, playing crazy games, sending encouraging texts, prepping snacks, praying, serving, and giving on behalf of the 11 to 19 year olds across Pierce County. We are so grateful to work alongside you.
