After nearly a year of planning and prayer, Grace Campus unfolds its giving arm where students, alumni, and our community can give towards global change and long-term partnership. Because of our desire to gather many college students for worship, teaching, and community - we believe the synergy gained from these gatherings affords us the opportunity to bring about change in the world.

Enter Give Grace. $20 is insignificant to many of us. It’s lunch with a friend or a few trips to Starbucks or a large pizza delivered or a t-shirt or a night at the movies…you get the point. We spend $20 like it’s nothing . On a good day, we even may find a crumpled $20 in our jeans pocket.

Yet, a simple commitment to invest $20 monthly means that orphans will have food, shelter, and medical care. It means that thousands of Bibles can be distributed in Asian countries. It means that students leaving Auburn can be supported in global missions. It means the Grace Campus will have connecting points, strategic exposure points, where college students will be shaped by experiencing a smaller world and a bigger God.

Our hope is for Give Grace to serve as a long-term project, where year after year, we can all share in the joy of seeing what our great God is doing through our simple obedience and willingness to give.

Our initial goal is to see 1000 students giving $20 a month, that is $240,000 a year.

The results are amazing. Working from $240,000 a year, that means that we can fully sponsor orphans (many with medical needs) in Uganda and in China, that means we can help distribute thousands of Bibles to people in Asia, that means we can partner strategically with our alumni around the world to advance the Kingdom, that means we can facilitate local outreach in our community, and it means the grace campus office can efficiently function in Auburn and remain focused on the goal.

Why are we confident in this mission?

All grace campus staff raise their own financial support. Year after year, we stand humbled by His faithful provision for our needs. Because this project overwhelmingly goes to help others, our greatest desire is the joy of seeing God work. The partners we have chosen to work with are reputable organizations, sharing similar values and goals. By putting these focused outreach points together, we can all share in the joy of seeing God do many things, in many places around the world, and here at home.

Both the staff and the board of directors are committed to acting with the highest integrity when it comes to the stewardship of resources. Please contact us with any questions.
