Suzanne Kahl is our full time staff person who supports the Tigard-Tualatin team and oversees our Wyldlife team.
Linnet Serrano is our Tigard-Tualatin Office Administrator. Feel free to reach out to her at ttadmin@younglifenw.org with any questions.

Leaders
Our area has 10 volunteer leaders of all ages!
Each week they are meeting in small groups with students, taking them to coffee or a meal, going to their school lunch, attending sporting events, and much more!
More leaders means reaching more kids. If leading sounds like the right fit for you, join us!
Committee
We have 8 committee members who volunteer their time to support our Young Life team and push our area in the right direction.
They provide a foundation of financial, administrative, and moral support for the local Young Life team and care deeply for the youth in our community.
Students
Tigard and Tualatin leaders know 412 kids by name!
If you're a student looking for new friends, a fun time, or a place to be known and cared for, we would love to have you!
Support our Team
Financially
Young Life is 100% community funded and resourced. Whether a one time gift or a monthly donation, every contribution is appreciated and important to us.
We also host two large fundraisers every year. A banquet in the spring and a golf tournament in the fall. If you have a knack for planning events, fundraising, gathering donations, or rallying golfers, we would love your help!
Host
Are you willing to host small to large sized groups? We have lots of gatherings including leader meetings, small groups, family dinners, campaigners and club always looking for a place to meet. We are starting to outgrow our spaces and would love to hear possible ideas.
Don't have a space but know someone who does? We would love to connect!
Prayer
We believe in the power of prayer. Join our prayer team to lift up the Tigard-Tualatin students, families, leaders, staff, community, and Young Life around the world.
Whether joining us on prayer walks, gatherings, or just receiving prayer requests through email, we would love to have you!
Food
Our gatherings throughout the week are always in need of snacks and food. Whether a homemade meal or picking up pizza and snacks at the store, your support helps us do what we do!
