Youth Haven | Our Mission to Help Disadvantaged Children

Mission & Purpose

Youth Haven's mission is to provide life-changing, Christ-centered experiences for disadvantaged children.

Youth Haven is committed to meeting the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of disadvantaged children. This includes boys and girls living in foster care, single-parent families, or low-income homes, as well as children who have experienced abuse, neglect, gang violence, or even a parent in prison.

Our programs include:

On-Site Adventures

Our campuses provide a safe, fun environment where kids' needs are met and they can experience the love of Christ.

Mail Ministry

Bible-based materials regularly share the Gospel through exciting activities, Bible stories, and more!

Kids' Website

We've created a safe and fun place for kids online, with Bible stories, verses, videos, and more at havenforkids.fun!

Kids' Care Packs

Gifts and toys show the kids they are loved, and we always include Bible stories!

Harvey & Friends

As an incentive to read their Bibles and send back activity pages, kids earn exclusive Youth Haven stuffed animals!

Teen Discipleship

Our Elevate program helps teens develop leadership skills and grow in their walk with Christ.

Through all of these methods, children learn they are loved, valued, and have the potential to do something great with their lives. Most importantly, they discover God loves them, created them for a purpose, and will never leave them, no matter what they might be going through.

At Youth Haven, hurting children find hope. And it's life-changing!

Breaking the Cycle

"The state is always wondering how we can break this cycle of dysfunctional families, abuse, and hurting children in the system... and places like Youth Haven are how we do that."

-Courtney, Agency Partner

You Can Help!

Youth Haven was established in 1968 as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that does not receive state or federal funding. The children we serve have limited resources and opportunities, so we provide these experiences to them free of charge. Love gifts from financial supporters show less fortunate children they are loved, cared about, and not alone!
