“The impact of Kershaw’s Challenge cannot be measured in numbers or statistics. But rather in the number of lives that have been changed for the better. And even that number is impossible to calculate! It’s a humbling reality to realize that we won’t know the full impact this side of heaven. We are so grateful for this important work, for the unending work of our beneficiaries and for the faithfulness of our God who invites us into the story. So much has happened since 2011 when this all started…and we believe there is still so much work to be done. What a gift to continue the mission for another year…””
— Clayton and Ellen Kershaw
 

Our Mission

Kershaw’s Challenge is a faith-based, others-focused organization. We exist to encourage people to use whatever God-given passion or talent they have to make a difference and give back to people in need. We want to empower people to use their spheres of influence to impact communities positively and to expand God’s Kingdom. We believe that God can transform at-risk children and neighborhoods through the benevolence and impact of others.

 

Our Impact

Impact happens one life at a time. And if these past years of work had only yielded change in ONE life, it would be well worth it. So many lives are different because of our beneficiaries. That fuels our desire to keep going!

"Baseball is great. I love it. I’m thankful I get to play it, blessed to be able to play it past high school. But at the same time, I know it’s a platform to be able to do other things. We’re just excited we get to do it. We know that baseball is going to end one of these days, hopefully a long time from now. And hopefully we have some things that continue on long, long after we’re gone."
