One Backpack, One Child, Endless Possibilities

Imagine a child in the inner city showing up to school without even a backpack—no supplies, no confidence, no idea how deeply they are loved.

Now imagine that same child receiving a PowerPack®—a sturdy backpack filled with school essentials and age-appropriate Christian resources—from someone who cared enough to give.

It seems small. But the ripple effect is enormous.

Families have come to faith, lives have been forever changed, and churches have been planted, all beginning with this simple, powerful gift.

Through the inner-city ministry of Cru®, your gift today equips local churches in America’s disadvantaged neighborhoods to bless children in their communities—opening doors for school success, sharing the life-changing love of Jesus, and real transformation.

To have PowerPacks® ready in time for the upcoming school year, we are asking you to give generously now — it takes an average of just $40 to provide one child with a PowerPack.

Give a PowerPack. Show God’s love in action. Change a child’s story—maybe forever.
