$275,000 Freshmen First Matching Challenge Double Your Impact to Share Jesus with Freshmen

#2287428 - Reaching Freshmen

The first month on campus is critical for freshmen.

These pivotal 30 days come with big changes as they navigate life out on their own ... and also big choices that will impact the rest of their lives.

  • Who will their friends be?

  • How will they invest their time and energy?

  • Will they fall for the party scene - or discover the love of Jesus Christ?

The answers often depend on who reaches out to them first!

This is why Freshman Survival Kits and other important Freshmen First outreaches are so important. They are our best opportunity to connect students to Jesus and a Cru® community before the world can lead them away.

But the window is only open for a short time - and it's closing fast! Most freshmen are on campus in August, and all will be there by September.

We want to give every incoming freshman the opportunity to connect with Jesus - and get plugged in to a caring Cru community - before that first month ends!

And for a limited time, the Freshmen First Matching Challenge will double the impact of your gift, up to a total of $275,000!

Normally just $10.37 provides a Freshman Survival Kit for one student. But an unprecedented $250,000 Freshmen First Matching Challenge will match your online donation dollar-for-dollar, so it goes twice as far.

Please prayerfully consider a significant gift for Freshmen First today.
