Our Story

Becoming Everyday Peacemakers

We believe that injustice is rooted in our disconnection from ourselves, from one another, and from God. This separation leaves people feeling stuck, disillusioned, powerless, and the world a mess. At Project Renew, we are inspired to become everyday peacemakers by cultivating partnerships and curating immersive experiences, moving people thoughtfully and compassionately toward the brokenness in themselves and the world. This journey activates imagination, nurtures hope, and inspires our participation with God’s ongoing work of renewal as our world becomes more just and whole.

Our Values

Transformative
Learning

We offer immersive experiences that form us from the inside out. Whether through study, travel, service, or peacemaking, we aim to create spaces where true transformation can take place

We believe true impact happens through action. It’s about more than just providing service opportunities; it’s about walking alongside people as they take the initiative to weave service into the fabric of their daily lives.

Radical
Generosity

We cultivate relationships with exceptional partners that are doing creative and just work in the world by funding, supporting, and celebrating their work.
