Ashley – Haiti

Ashley founded a Christian school in Les Cayes, Haiti, to provide accessible, high-quality education rooted in faith. After seeing the need for an alternative to Haiti’s memorization-based school system, she launched a program using the American Christian Education (ACE) curriculum—allowing students to earn a U.S. diploma and gain valuable English skills. Over the past decade, the school has grown from 18 to over 200 students, with a special heart for children with learning differences and those from financially at-risk families. Through scholarships, daily meals, and holistic care, Ashley’s team is helping students and families break the cycle of poverty while sharing the love of Christ.

Jason – Papua New Guinea

Jason and his family serve among the Iski people in one of the most remote regions of Papua New Guinea—accessible only by helicopter or a two-day hike. Their work centers on translating Scripture, planting a local church, and teaching literacy in the Iski language, which had never been written before. Beyond spiritual growth, they help meet physical needs through medical care, famine relief, and educational opportunities for children and youth. Each year, a few Iski students attend a mission-run Christian school for discipleship and English education. Jason’s team is committed to seeing the Iski church become self-sustaining and thriving, sharing the love of Christ in both word and deed.

Seth – Poland

Seth serves in Poland with Word of Life, leading programs that help youth and children grow spiritually, emotionally, and academically. His team hosts summer camps, English programs, and online English cafes, offering scholarships to students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, foster homes, and orphanages. In addition, they have provided refuge and holistic care for hundreds of Ukrainian refugees, addressing physical, emotional, and spiritual needs, while modeling Christ’s love in practical ways.

Young Life of Toledo

Young Life Toledo is dedicated to reaching middle and high school students with the message of Christ’s love through authentic relationships and fun, engaging programs. Their volunteers and leaders meet students where they are—at schools, in communities, and at camps—helping them grow spiritually, socially, and emotionally. By providing mentorship, safe spaces, and opportunities to explore faith, Young Life Toledo inspires students to discover purpose, hope, and lasting friendships in Christ.
