Mission Groups
Young People Who Care ministers to the needs of people in Central Appalachia Pennsylvania. Volunteers provide assistance with home repairs, cleaning, yard work, transportation to medical appointments, and other services not provided by other groups or agencies. YPWC is one mission that responds to the cries of the poor. This mission is special and unique in that the persons who volunteer are invited to live a life of Christian community in solidarity with the poor.
