The Gideons- College Campus Bibles

Taking God’s Word to college campuses
By getting God’s Word into the hands of a graduate, The Gideons hope that Christ becomes a person’s foundation, resulting in a life filled with God’s blessings, and an eternity spent in heaven.
Gideon College Testament distribution locations include 2-year and 4-year colleges and institutions, as well as all other post-secondary educational institutions such as trade schools, technical institutes and business schools. As with all Gideon distributions, college campus graduation distributions are made only after receiving approvals from officials.
For the 2010-2011 fiscal year to-date, The Gideons International has distributed over 2.3 million copies of God’s Word on college campuses worldwide, with more than 1.4 million of those being distributed on U.S. campuses. We praise God for the lives impacted as a result of this program, and for the Gideons and donors who made it possible.
Graduation signals a new beginning in life. As college graduates seek jobs and begin their careers, having God’s Word and putting their trust in Him will give them the strength and wisdom they need for the challenges that lie ahead.
We pray that as Gideons distribute God’s Word to this year’s graduating class, new graduates will discover that Christ is the only new beginning in life that can make a difference for eternity.
In March, 747,947 copies of copies of God’s Word were placed in the U.S. through The Gideons International. Praise God. Thank you members and donors.
