YFC Australia is part of Youth for Christ International, a Christian inter-denominational, non-profit organisation operating in over 100 countries.

YFC Australia is 100% committed to every young person in Australia. We want to see them cared for and moving beyond the often tragic circumstances of drug and alcohol abuse, depression, self-harm, sexuality, violence and suicide. But we know that it takes more than just care and compassion to see lives changed. In our experience, it’s only when a young person encounters God and experiences the transforming love of Jesus that they discover their true purpose and identity. That’s when real whole-of-life transformation happens.

YFC Australia has 11 regions around the country, with over 100 staff and 1300 volunteers sold-out on reaching young people through schools, care, adventure, events and multimedia. For over 60 years, we have been building genuine, honest relationships with young people. We ‘get’ them and the culture they live in - plus we genuinely like hanging out with them! And given only one in five are ever likely to wander into church, we choose to actively go into their world, sharing honestly about our own lives and giving them an opportunity to find new life in Christ.

With 3 million young people in Australia, what greater impact than reaching and discipling every one?
