Crossfire is a compassion ministry that helps the working poor, underemployed, seniors, single parents, military families and the homeless in the Pike Peak Region by providing food, clothing, personal hygiene items & household necessities to anyone in need.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Compassion ministry dedicated to helping the working poor, underemployed, seniors taking care of grandchildren, single parents, military families and the homeless in the Pikes Peak region.

We distributed approximately 3,400,000 pounds of food to families in our community that struggle with making gut wrenching choices between food and rent, utilities, and prescriptions. 1,700 families (average family size is 3) received a Thanksgiving Food box with everything they would need to cook a traditional Thanksgiving meal, including a turkey or ham for the family. We helped 920 houesholds with their past due utility bills to ensure that they would have electricity.

  • Additional services and assistance: We were able to provide 331,317 personal hygiene items such as shampoo, deodorant, toilet paper, soap, toothpaste, and toothbrushes; 12,000 backpacks filled with school supplies were distributed to children headed back to school. This was a collaborative effort with CosILoveYou, Discovery Church, Mercy's Gate, Community donors, other local churches, businesses, and organizations. 120 families we sponsored for Christmas where we gifted everyone in the household with gifts, including parents and guardians, children and even gave household appliances to families as needed. 2,625 blankets were distributed and 2,139 Bibles and new testaments were given away including to the county jail. All of the operations are carried out by volunteers with the exception of one full-time (executive director) and 4 part-time paid staff. We logged approximately 83,425 volunteer hours. These hours are valued at $2,866,483 (Colorado assigns the value of $34.36 per volunteer hour).
