Inside the Campaign - #2
An insider’s view of Young Life Liberty Region’s long-range plan and fundraising activities
We begin 2019 thinking anew about our vision for the Liberty Region and how we can better equip our volunteer leaders to reach more kids. We ask for your continued prayer and support as we begin this important next phase of our journey together.
Advancing Liberty
Our fundraising initiative – newly labeled Advancing Liberty – is the Liberty Region’s expression of Young Life’s FORWARD campaign. It is a multi-year plan to add staff, improve existing and launch new ministries, dramatically increase our impact, and provide the additional funding to enable and sustain the Liberty Region’s long-range strategy. You can think of many additional reasons why Advancing Liberty is so apt for us. Look for more in the next edition of this newsletter.
Our Strategic Objectives
The core of the Advancing Liberty campaign is the Region’s five-year strategic plan. There are myriad alternatives and programs we will pursue to realize this plan; however, we are guided by four primary objectives:
Start and staff 40 new ministry programs;
Extend our weekly ministry reach from 2,000 to 4,000 kids;
Establish a Campership Endowment of $1M for under resourced kids, and
Institutionalize multi-year “step up grants” to bootstrap lower-income areas through the Every Kid Legacy Fund.
Mobilizing the Campaign Team
But our bodies have many parts, and God has put each part just where he wants it…Yes, there are many parts, but only one body… All of you together are Christ’s body, and each of you is a part of it. –1 Corinthians 12:18ff
We have established a campaign support structure to enable us to meet our objectives, but we cannot do so without your help. It’s a structure comprised of subcommittees focused on growth and improvement as illustrated below. If you have an interest in, or a recommendation for, one of these areas please contact Jeff Morrison, Tom Anderson, or your local Area Director.
Advancing Liberty Campaign Team
As always, we are grateful for your commitment to Young Life. We know we need to come together to fulfill God’s work through Young Life in the Liberty Region. Indeed, we are one body in Christ and each one of us is a part of it.
For the Advancing Liberty campaign team,
