when we empower children, the future brightens

Our youth programs reinforce God's love as they deliver life lessons
Opportunity awaits young people in our youth programs: opportunity to grow in self- awareness, dream of all that's possible for them, realize their abilities, and create the path to make their dream real. Programs include: summer camp, music lessons, practical skill-building and creative hobbies, and an archery program. We furnish transportation, meals and the items/equipment needed.
It Takes A Village To Raise A Child
We're here for parents, grandparents, foster parents, and schools - anyone working to give children the roots to grow and the wings to fly. How do we know if it's working? Every family has a story. When one story changes because of us, it's working. One child carefully drew a picture of her family with smiles and wrote, "Thank you for all you have done for me and my family." It's humbling to be able to make a life changing impact. Earning a child's gratitude makes a life changing impact on us.
How we help empower youth
"Every child born into the world is a new thought of God, an ever fresh and radiant possibility." K. Wiggin
Young people are the key to our best tomorrows. The Salvation Army works with our community to grow opportunity for young people to stretch themselves, to try new things and unlock the talents God gives us.
Who we are, is not what where we are - it's what's inside that defines us. Our programs unlock God's potential, nurtures it, gives it room to grow.

School Year
Back to School Supplies. Equipping children with school supplies is a financial burden each year. For parents struggling just to feed their families, it's a nightmare. The Salvation Army's rich tradition of helping children with back to school supplies began in 1989 with a program we called 'Operation Back to School' and continues through our partnership with the community in Back to School Fond du Lac.

"We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget he is somebody today." S. Tauscher
Character Building Programs
Our Salvation Army corps community center offers Fond du Lac County religious and character-building programs as Sunday school, youth troops, music classes, athletics, and sporting events, arts and crafts, etc. We mentor and educate to encourage character and life skills development. We hope the disadvantaged children and teens we serve see and seize the possibility of a better life.
Our youth enrichment programs are offered hand-in-hand with other family services that promote positive living. By offering helpful alternatives and hope, The Salvation Army shows the different life paths available and helps young people and families believe they can pursue a dream and succeed.

- Moonbeams for girls and boys in pre-K and Kindergarten
- Sunbeams for girls in grades 1-5
- Girl Guards for girls in grades 6-12
