HELP!
The Refuge is purely donor supported and cannot continue without your financial support. We ask that you take this time to evaluate what impact The Refuge has made not only in your life, but in the lives of others. The foremost desire of The Refuge is to provide a positive alternative not only on-air, but on-line and face-to-face. The Refuge has been a pioneer in Christian music air-waves to bring God’s truth into 5 states. However, the work is not complete. We must continue to fight for this generation and future generations—they need a Refuge!
The Refuge has a passion to feed this generation with God’s love and truth. To give them direction in this ever-changing electronic world. In order to provide them with safe environments we need to pull together communities - churches, businesses, families. Not every contribution needs to be monetary. Partnerships are priceless.
