About the Trustees of WSCF
Since 1895 the World Student Christian Federation (WSCF) has provided global, ecumenical leadership training for students exploring the connection between faith and social justice. Today the WSCF has member movements, called student Christian movements (SCMs), in over 100 countries.
We are a group of friends and alumni whose lives have been transformed by our experience with the Student Christian Movement in the United States and around the world. Through support of the WSCF we work to ensure that current and future generations have the same global, ecumenical, faith-based and justice oriented experiences.
Established in 1925, the WSCF Trustees supports the work of the global WSCF and student Christian movements in the US and around the world. The WSCF Trustees raise and manage funds for the benefit of the WSCF and have worked to preserve and make available the rich history of US student Christian movements and the global WSCF.
