Preble County Youth Foundation

The Preble County Youth Foundation is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to developing programs and facilities for the youth of Preble County, thereby providing them with new opportunities to grow. The idea was conceived and promoted by Judge Wilfrid Dues whose experience both as a father and within the Preble County Juvenile System led him to the belief that the soundest investment we can make is an investment in the development of our youth

Preble County is home to over 11,000 kids whose unique abilities are waiting to be developed. You can help them. From providing financial support, to volunteering time, to helping us spread the word of our programs, there is much you can do to have lasting impact on the children; the future of our county.

We’re opening doors and creating new doorways where none existed before.Since 1993, the PCYF has been successful in raising funds to provide our local youth with enriching activities & offerings. In 2003, through the generosity of our donors, we brought the Preble County YMCA and Preble County Medical Center to our community. In 2009/2010, we added a Sinclair Community College Branch Campus and expanded the YMCA facility.

In addition, the PCYF seeks to allocate funds toward ongoing program offerings, including scholarships, various leadership opportunities, and monthly teen activities.
