A Day in the Life of Crossroads
Help us fill the 2025 calendar—one day at a time.
Each day of the year is available for sponsorship, with the donation amount matching its calendar number. For example:
- January 1 = $1
- March 17 = $76
- December 31 = $365
Choose a date that’s meaningful to you—like a birthday or anniversary—or simply pick one based on your giving level. You can sponsor one or multiple days.
Once you choose your date(s), pledge that amount. You can give right away or anytime during the year. If more than one person selects the same date, that’s okay—we welcome multiple sponsors per day.
