Valley Youth House (VYH) is deeply saddened by the news of Father Dan Gambet’s passing. As a longtime friend and partner of our agency, Father Dan was actively involved in helping VYH create a world in which every young person belongs to a nurturing community.

Father Dan served on the VYH Board of Directors for over a decade, and he helped the Agency to raise millions of dollars through two capital campaigns to purchase and renovate Camp Fowler in 2006 and Great Beginnings, our apartments for young mothers and their children in 2014. In 2017, VYH celebrated Father Dan as the Distinguished Honoree of our annual Setting the Stage event for his unwavering dedication towards the VYH mission.

VYH is eternally grateful for Father Dan’s leadership and commitment over the years, which provided support to thousands of youth and families in need. His kindness, compassion, and generosity will never be forgotten.
