Turn Food into Hope This Thanksgiving

We are in the middle of our annual Box of Love® outreach to share holiday meals with families in need in inner cities across the nation.  Every Box of Love is a complete Thanksgiving meal with all the trimmings – more than enough to feed a family of 6.

Most importantly, each Box of Love always includes a gospel presentation — Scripture materials for both children and adults and information about knowing God personally.  The Box of Love does more than meet a physical need — children and adults encounter the gospel and have come to faith in Christ through the decades of this powerful, incredibly effective outreach.

Please stand with Cru Inner City today, providing Boxes of Love® to families in need of a helping hand. You’ll meet a huge need in the inner city ... HUNGER ... and shine the love and mercy of Jesus into the darkness of hopelessness and despair.
