Sarah Fruit

Hey there! My name is Sarah Fruit and I am a sophomore at the University of Southern Indiana. Had you asked me 7 years ago if I believed that being involved with Youth Resources would change my life, I probably would have said no. Well, I can say without hesitation that getting involved with such an incredible organization changed my life is the best way possible. I have had the privilege to be involved with a few of Youth Resources programs. I currently serve as a College Advisor for the Teen Advisory Council and this past summer had the opportunity to be one of YR’s administrative interns. I could tell you about these programs but truly, that wouldn’t adequately describe the impact YR has had on my life. Youth Resources is so much more than just its programs. YR is this big, loving family that makes everyone feel like a somebody. They love you no matter your background or your past. There have been countless times where I was just having a bad day and needed some cheering up and they were the ones who would show up at my house with ice cream or send me the most thoughtful, uplifting text messages. YR has provided me with some incredible mentors who have helped shape me into the leader I am today. The love and support that I receive from this group is unimaginable and I couldn’t imagine my life without my YR family.
