SPONSOR A STUDENT
how making sandwiches is making a difference in the world
"Each time I open another Jersey Mike's restaurant, that's one more DGL student we can sponsor who will make a positive impact in their community."
– Raley Parker, Jersey Mike's Franchise Owner and DGL Sponsor

"We are big proponents of Young Life's Developing Global Leaders (DGL). By taking a few cents from every sandwich we sell, we're able to sponsor DGL students around the world.
Sponsorship of $250/month provides full university tuition and a living stipend so they can volunteer in their local Young Life ministry.
We see these DGL students going on to become Young Life staff or teachers or business people in their communities where they are going to continue to have an impact for Christ in their community."
– Raley Parker
YOU can make an impact, too
(no sandwich making required)
Really? $250/month is all it takes to send a DGL student to college?
With the modest cost of university tuition in the developing world, a full DGL sponsorship of $250/month opens doors for DGL students to attend university and stay actively engaged in local Young Life ministry.
For many, this is a life-changing opportunity that helps end the cycle of poverty in their family.
DGL sponsorship starts at any level
Full sponsorship is $250/month but partial sponsorships start at any level which makes DGL sponsorship possible for anyone:
- Individuals
- Families
- Groups of friends
- Churches and small groups
- Businesses, and foundations.
DGL Sponsor and award-winning singer and songwriter, Brandon Heath, had the opportunity to meet his sponsored DGL student, Raja, during a climbing trip to Mt Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.
