Student Venture's Community Resource
Team Membership Drive is now in progress! This membership
drive is a special time where we are letting everyone know
about opportunities we have in Student Venture. If your son
or daughter is involved with us, or if you just care about
the students in your community, we'd like to ask you to get
involved in a CRT. Below, you'll find answers to some common
questions about the CRT that will help explain exactly what
it involves..
What is the CRT?
CRT stands for Community Resource Team. This is a
team of adults, primarily parents of students involved with
us, who look for ways to help strengthen and promote the work
of Student Venture in their community.
Why is the CRT important?
The CRT is the foundation for making Student Venture's outreach
effective in a community. Each school campus has it's own
CRT, and the members support each school ministry in some
really big ways.
How does the CRT support Student Venture?
The three primary ways the CRT helps our outreach is through
prayer, service, and finances.
PRAYER: Of course, prayer
is important to our outreach because we are totally dependant
upon God for everything we do. The goal of the prayer team
is to pray for every student at their school by name. Prayer
partners also commit to pray at least once a week for Student
Venture and to enlist other adults to pray. This really
is the most important role on the CRT.
SERVICE: The CRT service team helps Student
Venture by volunteering their time, skills, homes... just
about anything, to make us more effective. Some of these
activities include providing food for a meeting, hosting
a meeting in their home, helping with the city database,
chaperoning events, helping with mailouts, or just giving
rides to and from events. No service role is too small!
FINANCES: This part of the CRT is important
because our outreach does need money in order to operate.
The main way CRT members help us with finances is simply
through their donations. If your son or daughter is involved
with Student Venture, we'd like to ask you to help with
monthly or special gift giving. Other roles on the finance
CRT are helping with fundraising events, helping develop
our budget, and communicating to others about Student Venture.
