Why we need your support.
We've all heard, "it takes a village to raise a child", but what does it take to Raise a Village filled with children and youth? The question had never occurred to us while living in Canada but it begs an answer in South Africa! While we don't have "the" answer, we do believe we have some insight. Being on the ground full-time in South Africa for nearly four years has allowed us to establish a good foundation onto which we will now, Lord willing, expand upon by Reaching, Preaching and Teaching. YES we have a strategic plan to Reach more, Preach more, and Teach more. We've prayerfully considered what we hope to accomplish over the next 3 years, how to get there, and the cost involved. We're grateful for a matching donor who believes in us, what we're doing, and more importantly who we are serving. With your support we will reach our goal of $100,000 by September 2024. ​
Our 3 Pillars
Our three pillars, Reach, Preach, Teach are intertwined within each of our strategic God sized goals above. Reach, Preach, Teach is how we do what we do in every area of service. We're investing our lives in the lives of the children, youth and young adults in the communities we're called to because He LIVES for them.

Why Raise a Village?
We've been actively building relationships in two communities since 2019. Relationships and trust take time. With time comes insight and understanding. Otherwise known as a GIFT.
We've invested a great deal and as we stand back in an attempt to evaluate, we rejoice in what, by God's grace, we've accomplished while at the same time we are very aware there's a great deal of RAISING yet to do.
​
Raising a Village means Reaching, Preaching, Teaching and of course Releasing. We'll continue to stand with our beneficiaries and support them to Raise their Village, and God willing, we'll go into new communities to support them to Raise their Villages too. With your support and God's leading we will RAISE A VILLAGE, or two or three!
