Campus Crusade for Christ is an interdenominational movement committed to helping take the gospel of Jesus Christ to all nations. We partner with churches and other organizations to help Christians around the world learn how to share the gospel, as well as to help new believers grow in their faith.
All Campus Crusade staff members, including the president, Steve Douglass, raise the funds needed to pay their salaries and to cover ministry expenses.

Founder & President, Campus Crusade for Christ
“None of us has a long time here on planet Earth. It’s kind of a staging ground. It’s our split second in eternity when we have an opportunity to invest our lives, our time, our talent and our treasure to help fulfill what our Lord came into this world to do and commissioned us to do. In fact, His last words before He ascended to be with the Father were: ‘Be my witnesses.’”
