TESTIMONIES
“I give to Brigade because I know there’s a boy out there that needs Brigade like I did.”
CSB ALUMNI & DONOR
“At age 77, I fondly remember the men who spent time with me, loved me, told me about Jesus, mentored my spiritual life, went camping, etc. My whole life has been about involvement with boys and men. I thank God for the many Christian men I have met through Brigade. Each one taught me more about God’s love.”
