WOW! Real evidence your support of YFT's children was a very productive investment.
2014 was an incredible year - one of unparalleled achievements.
A list of the year's HIGHLIGHTS is briefly expressed below. While it all begins with the faithful commitment the Lord places upon our program services to His children, an essential component to our success remains the distinguished legacy of private sector donors of which you are a member.
We are deeply grateful for your generous support of our boys and girls this year -
over 2,656 this year alone were served through our 5 residential programs and 5 behavioral health programs. All these children between the ages of 5-18 years of age have received re-direction of their behaviors, witnessed role models in Christian faith and given hope for a bright future they never thought available to them before YFT.
Most importantly, through your financial support of our children, you have become a part of their lives. While it's true they may not know you, just know He knows -- what you have done for them.
Because of each of you, Youth For Tomorrow set an unparalleled record of achievements this year. Among them:
- 2,656 boys and girls were served through our 5 residential and 5 behavioral health programs (143% increase)
