Youth on Fire is a socio-civic, non-profit organization recognized by the Deparment of Education, Culture and Sports (DECS) and registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Youth on Fire is a youth organization under the supervision and guidance of Victory Christian Fellowship, a Christian movement with local churches in most of the major cities around the country.

Youth on Fire has secured a mandate as an accredited student organization from the Deparment of Education, Culture and Sports to become a vital partner in nation-building:

"Pursuant to our commitment to the holistic development of our pupils and students, and as part of our policy to expand our network with other youth-serving organizations, the Department recognizes Youth on Fire as an able partner in providing our schoolchildren with supplemental activities for values
formation vis-à-vis the contemporary distinct culture pervading in our youth today."

Faith in Christ.
This is the starting point. Young people will put their faith in something. Some have faith in technology, in the economy or in their education. Some still have faith in their parents, others in their peers. Some have faith in themselves, that they can make it alone. We envision an army of young people who learn to put their faith in God and do mighty exploits in His Name.

Involvement in Church, Campus and Community.
People of faith should be salt and light in a rotting and dark world. Youth who want to be on fire must be involved in a local church, in their campus and community, serving in any way they can. Church meetings are supposed to prepare us to live out our faith in the real world. We can only win our campus and community to the degree that we get involved and demonstrate Christian leadership and Christian love.

Relationship with Peers and Parents.
While relationships are important to this generation of young people, many struggle with how to relate with parents and peers. The vision of YOF is to help restore relationships between youth and their parents. We also teach young people how to relate with peers in relationships that reflect God's standard of purity and holiness. When youth are on fire for God, they know how to honor parents and how to live above destructive peer pressure.

Excellence in Everything.
When youth are really on fire, they will live all of life for the glory of God. Everything from academics to athletics will be done with excellence for the honor of God. Excellence simply means doing whatever we do as unto the Lord and for his glory.
