The Young Life Together Tithe began in 2020 and is a voluntary opportunity to provide financial assistance to Hard-to-Fund (HTF) areas throughout the U.S. HTF areas are those that struggle with community poverty, as well as socio-economic and racial inequities, making it difficult to sustain themselves financially. This financial resource gap undermines our efforts to serve these communities.

You and your team can help close this gap! This budget season, consider building the Together Tithe into your budget. When you tithe a portion of your area’s budget through the Together Tithe, 50% of your area’s tithe goes directly to HTF areas in your region, while the other 50% is designated to the National Together Office to be equitably distributed to HTF areas with the highest financial needs. Watch this recent update from John Holmes, director of diversity initiatives, and recipients of the Together Tithe. And, check out these Together Tithe resources on Staff Resources to learn more.
