SUCCESS STORIES

As we plant seeds in programs that will bear fruit around the world, we look forward to sharing the reports of how the recipients put them to use.  

All of our grant recipients agree to inform us about the outcome of their community projects once all activities have been completed.  

From time to time we'll post some of their feedback here so you can share our joy in seeing the goodness of God come alive in the lives of others!

Wholeness, Dancing and Horses

We sponsored a one-day horse camp for approximately ten students and teachers from an Atlanta dance program for teens overcoming challenging circumstances.  They learned to groom, saddle,walk and ride horses at the Angus Valley Stables in Bethlehem, GA. Horses are very calming and are great teachers of focus and attention to detail.  
The I-Promise Project

We partnered with Bristol Myers Squibb and one of its employee affinity groups to raise funds, purchase 90 breast cancer training models and send trainers to train community workers in South Africa.  This training program created a sustainable model for developing training resources throughout communities.  The trainers who received training then trained a second tier of local women on how to teach women in their communities how to self-examine and detect breast cancer.  This unique collaboration with The Lydia Tree included a corporate grant as well as partnering with the company's foundation to collect donations and fund the costs of the program.
