Our passion is to see kids in need and their families impacted. We work together to inspire hope!

For 25 years our passion has been to see at-risk kids and their families impacted. We work together to inspire hope, and relieve economic burdens in south Dallas so our kids can live in a stronger, healthier community. Youth World is a non-profit organization that reaches out to the community of south Dallas. Through after-school programs, monthly outreaches and summer camps, we help children find their God-given place in this world. Youth World has been successfully serving the community since 1998. Since then we have seen:
• 121,000 free lunches served to children in need
• 38,206 books read to improve literacy
• 89% higher homework grades reducing drop-out rate
• 4,191 new shoes distributed
• Clothes, shoes and supplies provided for children in need
• Gang prevention, drug prevention and other life skills lessons presented through activities, dramas, music, and special guests

We believe relationships are key to seeing transformation in a child's life. When you give time at Youth World we can say "Yes!" to one more child.

Because someone became a partner, a child had a hot meal for dinner. Because someone donated, a student had help with their homework. Because someone gave their time, a teen had somewhere to belong. Because of our partners, donors and volunteers, Youth World is a place full of joy and safety. Join the story being written here by visiting the link in our bio and finding your best fit!
