Our Impact
We strongly believe social change happens when communities partner together to empower each other.
Imagine what impact 10,000 nonprofits around the world can make when each one can effectively reach out and touch their communities.
Project 25 is an annual, collaborative, community service campaign based in San Diego CA. Over the past nine years Proj25 has helped inspire and fund the ideas of thousands of students to creatively raise tens of thousands of dollars to make an impact in their schools, communities, city, and the world.
We have been blown away by the incredible creativity, innovation, and passion by students doing projects ranging from; helping local homeless, financially assisting classmates battling cancer, and beach clean ups, to sending care packages to military overseas, sponsoring children in poverty, and funding clean water projects internationally.
Since 2009 the Proj25 campaign has donated over 75,000 hours of community service towards projects around the globe.
Each spring we open the campaign up to the first 50 schools/clubs to register online at proj25.org. We then hand out $100 mini-grants and ask each school/club to brainstorm, plan, and execute their project within an eight week timeframe, and then make a 90 second film documenting their work.
Projects are then judged by: creativity and innovation, breadth and depth of impact, sustainability, people involved, and money raised. Each year we wrap up the Proj25 campaign by hosting a huge awards show called the Campus Awards that features celebrities, musical artists, and pro-athletes along with red carpet photos, give-aways, and trophies for the top 3 projects.

AMPD is a 5 day and overnight summer camp for junior highers led by the Rock Church Youth Ministry and held at various camp locations around Southern California. 300 Students spent the week doing outdoor adventure, stage games and concerts, hearing about the saving grace of Jesus, and experiencing freedom in Christ!
Trish Teves and Fallon Palacios, leaders of the Junior High Ministry and founders of The Vow purity ceremony, believe in the power of words—God’s words. “The battle going on for young women's minds is more fierce than ever. It’s debilitating for many girls, the anxiety and depression they face. Their thoughts actually deposit harmful chemicals into their brain at an alarming rate, and they are suffering. We want to help repair that damage through God’s Word and the hope of the Gospel.”
Rock Church Youth Ministry leaders, for both boys and girls, believe that it’s through the affirming words of scripture, taught extensively and in creative ways by their leaders, that kids begin to see and believe that God loves them; it’s the negative ways of thinking that do not align with God's truth that should be challenged head on with God’s affirming words of love.
Just ask Jessica Vito Cruz, a Hey Gurl volunteer leader. “It is an incredible thing to witness teens discovering themselves through the words of affirmation that their leaders pour over them. I have seen dozens and dozens of youth, who have believed that they have no value, discover the truth through this kind of encouragement. It’s a transformational moment when they hear of their worth because of Jesus Christ and actually start to believe He died for them.”
