AYF - Merrowvista

AYF programs welcome people to discover their own best self, the richness of living a balanced life, and the power of creating inclusive, caring communities. Thousands of youth come to our lakeside site in New Hampshire to engage in programs year-round. Our programs inspire individuals and groups to put their best into action and make a difference in big and small ways each day. We are a nonprofit youth development organization, whose mission has provided the foundation for all that we do since 1925. AYF programs bring the mission to life, challenging individuals to act at their best. Programs actively engage participants in creating communities where all feel welcome and respected. In these safe environments individuals can learn and grow. Days are filled with activities that are fun, encourage creativity, and allow participants to take on real responsibilities in the care of themselves, one another and the world we live in. Staff support participants as they problem solve challenges, developing resilience, confidence and a greater sense of who they are and what they are capable of achieving. Join us in inspiring youth to make a difference in their communities and instilling the confidence it takes to do so!
