Our Mission

At Supporting Youth, we believe that every child should have access to quality extracurricular, educational, athletic, and other positive youth activities. We also recognize the heavy financial burden many of these positive activities can create for families. Our mission is to help ease that burden and remove barriers to participation, allowing youth participate in positive activities regardless of their family’s ability to pay.

We provide children, their families, and youth groups a simple way to earn money to help pay for positive youth activities. Through the Supporting Youth Family Club, we help individual families raise money to offset participation costs. Through Supporting Youth Charities, Inc., we help youth and school groups maximize their fundraising income. At the same time, we support local businesses and provide them with recognition as community leaders who support the youth in their communities.

Every child deserves to participate. Our mission is to help families and groups make that happen.

Our Focus

Participation in quality positive youth groups and activities is critical for children’s social, intellectual, emotional, and physical growth. Children need to feel included. There are countless programs, teams, clubs, lessons, and activities that can have a positive influence on a child’s growth and development.

Participation and inclusion in these activities make a child more likely to succeed in school and in life and to have a more positive outlook on life. Positive youth activities teach children to set, reach for, and achieve goals, and teach them to appropriately deal with both success and failure. Our focus is on helping children succeed and grow physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially to become well-rounded adults.
