Trinity Rescue Mission has decided to allow youth groups to use the Rescue Ride again this year to provide an opportunity for young people from different groups to raise money for their cause.

It was exciting to see so many young

people raise the money they needed so quickly. The top fundraising youth group was from Celebration Church, with over $5,000 being raised by their group for a mission’s trip to Belize.
 

What others say about "The Youth Group Challenge!"

"The Trinity Rescue Ride provided our youth with a simple and fun way to raise the money they needed for a missions trip to Belize," said Clint Hendry, Youth Pastor of Celebration Church. "The program was eagerly received by the entire church and their families and was so well organized that it allowed our youth to focus on just one major fundraising event. Our kids were able to quickly and easily raise funds for their trip."
