Truckee YoungLife is an organization dedicated to providing guidance to the region’s junior high and high school students by spreading the word of unconditional love. Currently in its third year, the program serves approximately 60 to 70 teens annually. Truckee YoungLife supports local teens throughout the year by providing one-on-one mentoring services and weekly group meetings to discuss the topic of faith. The highlight for the students involved with YoungLife is the opportunity to attend a weekend winter camp or a weeklong summer camp in California or Oregon. Any teen interested in attending the camp who cannot afford the fees receive a scholarship to attend.
Truckee YoungLife relies on its volunteers to run the program and has only one full-time paid staff member. Adult volunteers provide the coaching, mentoring and fundraising activities that keep the organization strong. The majority of funds supporting the $120,000 annual budget come from individual donors and the annual golf tournament fundraiser.
Smart Investor is a proud sponsor of the 2nd Annual Truckee YoungLife Invitational, hosted by Martis Camp on Monday, May 24th. This event is being held at Martis Camp’s breathtaking championship golf course and is a great way to warm up for the season while making a difference in the lives of local teens. The majority of spots for this tournament are filled, but anyone interested in attending can contact Ryan Hunter at 530.414.1290 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
