 HEFY Provides Summer Programs for Teens

Much like EFY, Humanitarian Experience for Youth offers an amazing summer experience for LDS teens focused on their spiritual growth and development. 

However, Humanitarian Experience programs go far beyond EFY by operating as humanitarian service expeditions to poverty stricken areas of the world. Think of Humanitarian Experience as an advanced EFY program with international travel and service opportunities.  If you liked EFY you'll love Humanitarian Experience.  If you're between the age of 16-19 and you're ready for a whole new experience you're ready for HEFY.
