About the Company
InterVarsity's VISION is to see students and faculty transformed, campuses renewed, and world changers developed through the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. InterVarsity's mission field is the campus of colleges and universities across the U.S. InterVarsity works with students and faculty in 1121 chapters on 772 campuses, from the Ivy League to community colleges. During the 2018-2019 school year, InterVarsity staff reported 3,140 first-time professions of faith in Jesus as Savior and Lord (up 39% from ten years ago). For more information, check out our Ministry Impact page at https://intervarsity.org/about-us/ministry-impact and our Annual Report at https://intervarsity.org/about-us/2017-2018-annual-report. In 2018 InterVarsity publicly launched our 2030 calling, a commitment to see Christian Fellowships on all 2,500 U.C. college campuses with more than 1,000 students. Presently, more than half of those schools appear to have no ministry presence whatsoever. In order to reach our goal, InterVarsity plans to partner with other ministries, churches, alumni, and other volunteers. More information at: https://intervarsity.org/every-campus.
