There is a Cornerstone Festival ticket for everyone regardless of their financial situation. That’s right, we are committed to getting everyone who wants to join us next summer a ticket to Cornerstone 2010.

How are we going to do this? Well for starters we need your help. There are no “deep pockets” behind Cornerstone Festival. We are just folks like all of you working hard each day. But we had a dream 26 yrs ago and God has continued to bless our efforts. We are asking each of you who can to please donate a little extra to the “Ticket Relief Fund”. This option will be available at the time you purchase your ticket or you can call us at 773.989.2087 (M-F, 9:30 a.m.-4 p.m., CST). All donations will be used to help someone who for whatever reason is unable to afford their ticket.

In addition, we are encouraging any and everyone who just can’t afford a ticket next summer to please feel free to contact us. We will try our hardest to help out.

This applies to Youth Groups as well. We realize many churches are in need of financial aid and we will work with you to make bringing your group to Cornerstone 2010 a reality.

And please remember, as a way to help young families, tickets for children under 12 years old are always free at Cornerstone.

If God has blessed you with the resources to help a fellow human being, please do so. Let’s trust God together and make Cornerstone Festival 2010 a life changing experience.

Some of Our Recipients

Raymond J. and his family, from Wisconsin
For the past 10 years, Raymond J. and his family have been doing ministry work in urban Milwaukee, WI with Heart-Fire Ministries, working with the addicted, prostitutes, gang member, kids, etc. His wife is a student at UWM, going for her master's degree in social work (she also works a few days at a non-profit inner-city children's center). Raymond and his wife have a three year old daughter in daycare four days a week. He (along with the rest of the four on staff at Heart-Fire) has had to cut his salary in half to keep the doors open. They haven't been able to attend the last three Cornerstones due to lack of funds, but will be able to go this year thanks to donations from fellow festival goers he and his family will be attending Cornerstone this summer!

Joel J. and his family, from Illinois
"Wow.  What an incredible blessing. Yes, we will be able to make it, and we are very excited.  Since our money is tight this year, I am going to surprise my wife with this for Christmas. Thank you for blessing us. Cornerstone has been a big part of our lives over the past decade, and we look forward to it every year. Being in seminary, our finances are pretty tight, so she will be amazed to find out."
