The AYF launches the Dare to Share campaign, raising $5.4 million in program and annual fund support. This successful campaign unlocked a $24.9 million facilities endowment from the Danforth Foundation. The Danforth Challenge required the AYF to increase their annual fund support and increase special program support.

In four years, this campaign funds multiple facilities projects at Miniwanca and Merrowvista, including the new Activity Center and East Camp Dining Hall at Miniwanca, as well as the Multipurpose Activity Center and the Waterfront Pavilion on Dan Hole Pond at Merrowvista.
