About Us
What we do
Youth Overcoming Life's Obstacles is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based out of Bozeman, Montana, with the primary goal of helping youth successfully transition into adulthood. We provide content to help prepare young people with 13 crucial life skills from a nondenominational, Biblical perspective, specifically from the book of Proverbs. Y.O.L.O. distributes its Proactive from Proverbs curriculum to churches with established youth groups.
Why we do it
Our inspiration comes from Proverbs 4:6, "Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you." As we all know, the future of our world is in the youth. Our goal is to equip young people with life skills to take on the next chapter in their lives. By being proactive, these teens can get a head start on the rest of society, as some don't learn these important lessons until it's too late. Together, we can each individually live our best lives and change the world for better.
