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.
