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
