We have a portfolio of partners locally and around the world. Our partnerships are built on shared beliefs and values, and a commitment to one another in true relationship. Some partnerships last for decades; others for a shorter season, depending on mutually agreed upon goals and commitments. Partnerships are invaluable for creating avenues for us to engage in God’s mission. Currently we are working with:
The Garage (Kennett Square and West Grove) works to empower youth to pursue their potential through after-school tutoring, mentoring and various programs. There’s no end to the creative ways you can serve at The Garage. But at the core, it’s all about relationships. Its mission is to empower youth to reach their potential academically, socially and spiritually. To learn more, click HERE or contact Kristin Proto.
YoungMoms serves women facing educational obstacles, poverty, single parenthood, depression, and a general lack of options and opportunities. This is an opportunity for women to invest in women through a mentoring relationship. To learn more, click HERE or contact Megan Anderson.
UrbanPromise works to bring shalom to a hurting community by providing schooling, after-school activities and community camps. They work to develop and empower leaders within their own community.

Good Neighbors works to make homes warmer, safer, drier and healthier for homeowners struggling with financial crisis—all as an expression of Christ’s love. We partner with Good Neighbors by hosting work projects several times a year. Anyone is welcome, regardless of skills. All that’s required is a willingness to roll up your sleeves and get messy.

Family Promise exists to help homeless and low-income families achieve sustainable independence through a community-based response. Working together, volunteers provide temporary housing, meals, and services to nearly 70,000 family members annually. To learn more, click HERE or contact Gustavo Castañeda.

We partner with HOPE International in Burundi to help families flourish.

They also partner with the local churches in Burundi to share the gospel, provide financial tools, and offer a hand-up for families. To learn more, click HERE or contact Gustavo Castañeda.
The following partners work in potentially dangerous locations as they disciple others for Christ, and so we protect their identities by referring to their general regions and their initials.
Southeast Asia—Our partners “R” and “M” are involved in linguistics and translation, providing ethnic minority groups access to God’s Word. The Hill Tribe people are often seen as second-class citizens, facing poverty and illiteracy with little opportunity for success. In a predominantly Buddhist part of the world, we’re seeing lives transformed as people learn to read God’s Word in their own language, recognize their value in the eyes of their Creator and pursue a relationship with Him.
