ADOPT A CAMPER
We want to give every child the opportunity to enjoy the CRU Camp experience. This is why a CRU Camper Sponsorship Fund exists to offer partial sponsorship to children who may miss out on camp due to financial constraints.
Samantha , 12-year-old sponsored camper, shares, “Camp was encouraging and fun. I loved the experiences! I got to meet other Christians on camp and the leaders helped me see a new perspective on Christianity.”
How can you help? Please give generously to the CRU Camper Sponsorship Fund: www.cru.edu.au/adoptacamper
