Flossmoor Community Church

Walk Through Our Mission invites you to step into the heart of You Matter 2’s work and experience the impact you help make possible.
Instead of sitting on the sidelines, you’ll move through immersive stations, guided by students, alumni, and volunteers who bring the mission to life. You’ll see how young people are supported from middle school through college and career readiness — through academic enrichment, mental health support, leadership development, and workforce preparation — and why that support matters now more than ever.
The evening builds to a powerful Spotlight Program where stories are shared, generosity is sparked, and collective action takes shape. You’ll have the opportunity to participate in a live auction and an inclusive paddle raise — joining others in fueling programs that help young people grow, heal, and thrive.
