Leave a Mark Where?
Leave a Mark.
If this is the first time you have heard this slogan, you have been living under a rock. Or not involved with the Impact community.
When May 15th comes each year, thousands of students leave the campus. Some go back home, some stay in Charlotte, some leave the country for the summer. But for the staff, the summer provides us a chance to support raise. During the school year, our support raising with new individuals is limited because of our involvement with the ministry and the students. But for three months during the summer, our staff is raising support for the upcoming school year.
We have campaigned under the slogan, Leave a Mark, for three summers now. Our goal this summer is $12,000. We partner with churches, parents, and children, so that we can leave a mark on the students at Charlotte – especially the incoming freshmen class! So where does this money go?
$6,000 goes toward Ministry Expenses. This allows us to put money into the Gathering, retreats, and parties that we throw during the school year.
$4,000 goes towards beginning of the school year activities. We have huge events for the two weeks of the semester. We want to leave a mark on the students through social activities so that they will return looking for community.
$2,000 goes towards our Community Groups. For the first time, we hope to be able to have money to invest into our community groups – the place where students find connections with one another and draw closer to God.
Currently, $6,000 has been given towards our Leave a Mark Campaign – Halfway towards our goal! The students are returning in five weeks. We need $6,000. Will you give towards this $6,000? The incoming freshmen are depending on it. You can Leave a Mark today by Clicking Here!
