From the Heart Stories

1. Compton United Soccer Club

Mike Herman has been with Campus Crusade for Christ for 15 years, and he recently founded the Compton United Soccer Club. But this is more than an afterschool athletic program--players work on character and spiritual development, leadership, and community service.

2. Hidden Harvest
Christy Porter has brought back the ancient practice of gleaning. Through her Hiddden Harvest organization, workers collect what's left behind after the harvest. They're able to take the surplus home to feed their families, and produce is also donated to area food banks and soup kitchens. http://www.hiddenharvest.org/
