Youth Service Fund (YSF) is a mission fund exclusively of United Methodist Youth. YSF is money raised by youth, spent by youth to benefit youth. For every dollar of YSF money raised, 30 cents goes to the General Church Division on Ministries with Young People where youth from across the US determine grants given to ministries helping youth across the world. The remaining 70 cents remains in the NC Conference to be used for Conference Youth Ministry, In-Conference Projects and Out-of-Conference Projects. Grant applications must be postmarked by Jan. 16 to be considered. Funds will be distributed in February and March. Applications are available from the Youth Ministries Office (contact Robin Harry – rharry@nccumc.org) or by clicking the following link YSF Grant Application.
