Pros

The community is like no other. You will build life-time relationships in this organization. The work is meaningful, you are tangibly making a difference in teens lives. Also, it's fun!!

Cons

It's easy to burn-out because the "work-load" is never-ending. You have to be good at setting boundaries or it takes up your entire life. Also, you have to fundraise a lot.

Pros

Volunteer nature makes it extremely likely that you work with selfless, awesome people. Similarly, you work with kids and play lots of games, so your peers tend to be fun. Very rewarding to help kids and further the YL mission.

Cons

Big commitment, requires courage/awkward moments
