YW was founded in 1994 as a youth missions organization with a goal to become a broader resource for the Church—to “Help the Church Be the Church.” In 2008, YW expanded its ministry vision to include planning and facilitating ministry experiences for children, youth and families. Headquartered in Minneapolis, MN—YW operates in more than 80 cities and has served more than 400,000 participants and 10,000 churches since its inception.
