Sponsor a Gap Year Scholarship

Empower the Next Generation

At Young Life Australia, we believe that no young person should miss the chance to grow in faith and leadership because of financial barriers. That’s why we’re inviting you to partner with us in offering Gap Year Scholarships – helping make this life-changing program accessible to more young adults.

The Young Life Gap Year Program is a year of discipleship, adventure, and service for 17–25-year-olds who desire to follow Jesus wholeheartedly. Through mentoring, mission experiences, and hands-on ministry, participants are equipped to live out their faith in study, career, and everyday life.

About the Scholarship

We have called our Gap Year Scholarship fund after a special person. Keith Doe.

Keith was a father figure to many – deeply devoted to Jesus and faithfully living out the mission of Young Life for many, many years, both in Australia and around the world.

 

How you can help

Your generosity can make the difference for a young person saying “yes” to a year of transformation:

 

$22,000 – Fully sponsors one participant

$11,000 – Half sponsorship

$2,000–$5,000 – Partial scholarship support

 

Every contribution helps remove financial barriers and allows young adults to focus fully on growing in Christ, developing leadership skills, and serving others.

You’ll not only be investing in one young person’s journey, but you’ll also be sowing into the next generation of leaders who will impact their communities for years to come.

Embrace the adventure!

Partner with us today

Young Life Australia’s Gap Year shapes young disciples through community, adventure, and spiritual formation. You can play a vital role by sponsoring a participant – helping them grow in faith and leadership as they step into God’s call on their life.

Young Life Australia Foundation’s programs and ministry rely on the generous, freewill support of individual donors. While we are grateful for contributions from churches, community groups, and Christian trusts, the majority of our funding comes from individuals like you.

As a faith-based mission, we depend entirely on God’s provision through the generosity of His people. Thank you for partnering with us in this important work.
