How Your Donations Expand the Ministry
and the Work of Christ
The ministries of CEF rely on the utilization of resources, curriculum, and teacher training materials, which are offered free of charge to children, families, and trained volunteers. Your donation is essential to meeting these integral needs of the ministry.
Your donations also contributes to the work of the essential day-to-day operation of the Chapter. Our staff member, our Director, is able to be supported as a missionary to our communities through your generosity and support.
Their Very Own Bible
A large number, in fact, the majority, of our Club Kids do not attend church and do not have access to a Bible. Just $25 provides two children in our Good News Clubs with their very own Children’s ESV Action Bible in partnership with David C. Cook publishers, or a Teen Bible for our JYC Middle School Ministry students.
Gospel Tracts
Just $5 provides volunteers with over 50 Gospel or Discipleship tracts in Spanish and English.
Crisis Booklets
Kids live in a crisis filled world these days. Just $15 provides 30 Gospel-centric crises booklets for children experiencing trauma and uncertainty.
Teacher Training
$80 provides exceptional Teacher Training Sessions for volunteers to become effective in Evangelism and Discipleship with children.
Exceptional Giving for an Exceptional Purpose
If you are looking to provide an exceptional financial contribution to the ministry, here are some ways your gift may be used to evangelize and disciple children and families in our community.
Establish an After School Good News Club or JYC Club
$1,200 per school site provides our Chapter adequate funding to establish a physical presence on a school campus for an entire year with a Good News Club or a JYC Club.
Adopt-A-Club: Your Local School
Your donation helps establish Good News Clubs and JYC Clubs on campuses. In order to start an after school Club, there are school district rental fees to use the school facilities (this can be a school of your choosing), volunteer screening and background checks, school site insurance, teacher training and enrichment, a full year of curriculum (26 weeks), child and family resources, and more!
Support our Chapter Staff & Volunteers
$2,000 contributes to a month of financial support for the Chapter’s Director, who is paid for part-time work due to funding limitations. Donations to our Chapter are the sole means for providing financial support to Local Chapter.
$1,200 provides two Summer Ministry Scholarships for students in Christian Youth-In-Action. Teens and young adults who choose to serve in summer ministry with CEF’s 5-Day Clubs volunteer of their time, energy, and spirit. The cost of training is assumed by these young servants, and a scholarship equips them for lifelong ministry to Christ, their community, and the Church.
