Project Faith is a powerful day of service where our entire school community—students, faculty, staff, and parent volunteers—partners with local organizations to make a meaningful impact.

Alongside serving, Project Faith also supports the Faith Fund, helping strengthen the programs and mission of Faith Christian School.

Fundraising and Service — Project Faith gives you the opportunity to serve others while also strengthening Faith Christian School through support for the Faith Fund.

By reaching out to grandparents, family friends, neighbors, mentors, and others, you invite them to join a mission built on service, faith, and purpose.

Our goal each year is 100% participation. When every student takes part, Project Faith becomes a shared experience that strengthens our entire community.

Where We’ve Served

We’re excited to return to Apple Ridge Farm, our 2023 partner, to support their growing repair and maintenance needs. Apple Ridge Farm is a nonprofit serving underserved children and families in the Roanoke and New River valleys through the exploration of environmental sustainability, leadership mentoring, and outdoor experiences, including a free Academic Summer Camp for at-risk youth. Apple Ridge Farm has been “Helping Kids Grow” since 1978, serving over 90,000 youth!
