Russ and Di Zimmerman

#0443184

Di has 28 years of ministry experience with Cru. Her vision is to see the nations reached with the Gospel as International Students studying here in the U.S. go back as equipped and trained as Christ-centered laborers! 

Di lives in Minnesota with her husband Russ and youngest daughter.  Her older daughters are away, one serving with Cru in Paris and one studying nursing in Winona.  Di serves the 350+ Bridges International Staff as a Ministry Partner Development Coach.  Her primary goal is to ensure that staff are able to live out their calling to reach international students on the mission field, the college and university campuses in the US where over 1 million international students come to study every year.  

Di also holds a project manager role with Cru Stewardship, leading teams and coaching and training people across Cru's ministries, so that staff can serve with Christ at the center, fully funded and financially faithful.

Have you ever considered giving in the most tax-smart way?

Many generous partners like you are discovering how to maximize their kingdom impact—not just for Cru, but also for their local church and other ministries—without ever touching their checking or savings accounts.

Here are three powerful ways to give smarter:

Stock Gifts – Avoid capital gains and give more.

Donor Advised Fund – Streamline your giving with tax efficiency.

IRA Giving (age 70½+) – Reduce taxable income while advancing the gospel.

Cru Foundation is a ministry of Cru designed to serve you with strategic, tax-smart giving solutions at no cost to you. Our mission is to help ensure more of your generosity fuels the Great Commission, not taxes.
