Support New Salem students while they are attending college!  The Adopt-A-Student Program serves as a means to provide transitional support to members of New Salem who have gone away from Central Ohio to seek full-time collegiate studies.

Adopt a student today! 

We encourage CARE Groups, families and ministries to adopt students for a school year and provide them with encouragement, care packages and prayer while they are away. Here are the adoption requirements:

• Commit for at least 1 school year (Sept - May)
• Assign a contact person that will keep the student's information confidential and give monthly updates to the program coordinator (by the 30th of each month)
• Contact the student at least twice a month 
• Send the student a CARE package (by Christmans and Easter)
• Pray for the student weekly (especially the student's prayer requests)
• Celebrate the student's progress and achievements
• Send the student a card on their birthday 
• Try to host the student at a group gathering when the student returns home
• Contact the Dr. Christopher Travers regarding any major issues or problems that arise in the student's life
