Delaware Youth for Christ is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization working with at-risk youth in New Castle County, Delaware since 1958. We currently work with approximately 3,000 young people each year through our afterschool programs at our youth centers and mentoring program. We are a chartered affiliate of Youth for Christ/USA, which was founded in 1944 by Torrey Johnson and Rev. Billy Graham – who became the first YFC staff member. The organization has continued to grow over the past 60 years, and now operates in more than 2,000 towns and cities around the United States. YFC International is working in the youth cultures of more than 100 countries around the world.

 Rev. Billy Graham says of Youth for Christ – “It was my privilege to be the first full-time employee of Youth for Christ. After fifty years, Youth for Christ continues to communicate the life-changing message of Jesus Christ to our young people. We all know that the problems confronting today’s young people are staggering. I can think of no greater cause than to reach our youth for Christ.” – Rev. Billy Graham
