Young Life

Young Life is a Christian outreach program aimed at high-school students. Founded in 1941, it is now active in all 50 states and has a presence in roughly 2,500 high schools across the country. “When we came to Greensboro, my kids had a hard time, and Young Life really helped them fit in,” says Leblon owner Ilma Vanucci. “I’m very grateful. My son is still very involved in the organization.” The local Young Life office can be reached at 336-274-0775.
