Graphic Design — Cru has a Creative1Media team that can do photography, graphic design, and video. Please fill out this form and someone from the team will be in touch. For campus ministry-related projects, there is no fee for the work unless C1M incurs cost while fulfilling your request. (For example: print costs, a flight, housing, food, etc.) Due to the volume of requests, for any project that is outside the campus ministry there will be a nominal fee agreed upon before we begin the project.

Social Media — We've got a whole guide on how to launch your campus well in the fall. And there's a great Social Media training on Cru.org's digital ministry page.
