We will offer a variety of services, including help with chores and various forms of technical support.

Testimonials
"The YAG Workout is a great way to learn new skills, finish projects you have been postponing, and get to know some amazing young people. We have used the service to get help with our computer, upload and organize digital photos, and organize the file cabinet from hell." -- Res Comm
"It was such a relief to actually find someone in our UCSD Catholic community we could trust to help us with our computer problems. We have had other repairman help us in the past and have not been satisfied. Not only did Sherman and Edwin fix our problem but spent time with us explaining complex issues. I would highly recommend both of these YAG members for your technical needs." -- Res Comm
"YAG helped me loading for my move, I couldn't have done it without their help. Great Tetris players with FUN spirit!" -- Comm member
"With an injured arm and inertia to overcome, I called upon the friendly and helpful services of the YAG Workout program to help me clean my garage. Brian and Warren were great!" -- Res Comm
"Backbreaking work done with laughter!" -- Res Comm
"If:
- you would prefer to keep on IGNORING or PUTTING OFF chores and technical problems you can't handle on your own;
- you do NOT want help from people who are bright, resourceful, efficient, honest, energetic, good-hearted, interesting, friendly;
- you do NOT welcome an opportunity to get to know/be known by other members of our Catholic Community;
- you are NOT interested in contributing to our Building Tomorrow Campaign
then of course you absolutely must not think of making use of our young agult group's generous offer of service!"
