YL Wisconsin Forward
A FORWARD Campaign for the Wisconsin Region
A movement has begun.
The Wisconsin Region is building a strategic plan to develop leadership, improve existing and launch new ministries, dramatically increase our reach and impact, and provide the additional funding to enable and sustain this strategy. True to our state motto, Forward, this fundraising initiative is the Wisconsin Region’s expression of Young Life’s FORWARD campaign.
Kids around the world are searching for hope, meaning, and belonging
For nearly 50 years God has been at work in Wisconsin through Young Life. Today, more than 2,000 kids in 35 schools have a caring adult in their lives in the form of a Young Life leader. Thousands more across our state are in need of belonging, significance and hope.
Our vision is to strengthen
and trail blaze
We are strengthening ministry where it already exists based on time-tested methods. We are also trailblazing in new places and creating a flow of resources to sustain these new ministries.
Together we will double our impact over the next five years.
We Need Your Input
Those close to Young Life in the Wisconsin Region are an essential part of this vision and critical to the pursuit of these goals. You represent wise counsel and we would love to hear your input on how we can grow YL Wisconsin together!

The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed bring good news to the poor; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound.
— Isaiah 61:1
Let’s move Forward together to reach more kids in Wisconsin than ever before!
