The Close Up Foundation brings citizens from throughout the nation and around the world to Washington, D.C., for a firsthand look at the federal government and the development of public policy. A nonprofit, nonpartisan civic education organization, Close Up connects individuals of all ages to their communities and institutions through challenging education programs and products. By building partnerships with the education community, the private and philanthropic sectors, and all branches and levels of government, Close Up makes civic participation a dynamic and meaningful experience. Since its founding in 1970, Close Up has remained focused on the values of citizenship and the importance of an educated electorate, aware that democracy is a constantly renewing experience that must be taught and shared with each new generation. It has continued a strong organizational determination to make the democratic process available to students from every background, and places special emphasis on outreach to disadvantaged young people, with fellowship programs for low-income students, minority students, migrant students, recent immigrants, American Indians, Alaska Natives, the hearing and visually impaired, and other students with special needs.

Create compelling media that inspires and encourages our listeners to have a meaningful relationship with Christ. We use music, people, and short educational features to build relationships with our listeners through our media channels. The currency from these relationships is trust, and through that trust, we help peoples' souls respond to a God who loves them, gave Himself for them, and wants to be the center of their lives. Our desire is to work together with our listeners to demonstrate Christ's love through service in their local communities.
