Emerald Youth Foundation
At Emerald Youth Foundation, our mission is to raise up a large number of urban youth to love Jesus Christ and become effective leaders who help renew their communities.
We’ve been working closely with the community since the late 1980s, when we began a summer outreach ministry designed to support urban youth.
Over the past 25 years, Emerald Youth Foundation has served 25,000+ young people in the heart of Knoxville. Last year, Emerald Youth Foundation ministered with more than 2,300 children, teens and young adults through a network of churches and faith-based organizations in the heart of Knoxville.
