Does JAM Camp™ make a difference? Just ask Tony! He’s an outstanding basketball player at his high school in Dayton, Ohio — and now, with the encouragement and training he received at JAM, he stands out as a leader off the court, too. Today, you can help reach more inner-city youth like Tony. Your generosity will help change a life, and by God’s grace save a life. Please prayerfully consider giving today.

A father whose life didn’t turn out the way he hoped.

A son who looked up to him anyway.

His future was at risk …



But a S.A.Y. Yes!® Center in their neighborhood made all the difference.

Safety. Stability. Encouragement. Supportive adults. A brighter future.



A father’s hope for his son to have a better life became a reality …

That’s what your gift can do. Please say YES to urban youth today.

Today we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. The grave couldn’t hold Jesus, and it won’t hold us either! 🙌

It’s more than just a moment in history. It’s a promise that death isn’t final and God’s power is greater than the grave.

Harvey used to hide in shame from his children if he saw them in a store. Now, thanks to Easter Bags from the Inner City Ministry of Cru® you provided, he’s rebuilding his life … and his relationship with his family.



It’s amazing what a little white bag can do. Filled with candy, toys, crayons, gospel bead bracelets, and other biblical literature, Easter Bags hold simple gifts that mean the world to children in need … and the power to change lives.

A simple Easter Bag changed everything for Marina and her daughters.

They came for treats … but found the hope of Jesus.

Marina rededicated her life to Christ. And one of her daughters accepted Him for the first time!

This Easter, you can help reach more families like hers.

Just $10.50 provides one Easter Bag.
