The following are organizations that I either serve on the Board of Directors for or work closely with and support personally. Each is making a significant difference in a unique way. Thanks for taking the time to check them out. Please consider supporting these ministries as they impact lives in their community and around the world.
Haiti Orphan Foundation
Haiti Orphan Foundation exists to bring hope and provision to children in Haiti through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The vision of HOF is to raise young leaders in Haiti who love Jesus and are equipped to bring lasting change in a country that desperately needs hope.
Sugar Hill Church
Part of the DNA of Sugar Hill Church is to serve others outside the walls of the church building. Sugar Hill Church is making a significant difference in northeast Atlanta through dozens of outreach initiatives in local schools, city government, and community involvement. SHC is also making a difference through a number of ministry partnerships around the world. Check out how you can be involved at http://www.sugarhill.church/missions/.

Since 1916, Kids Alive has been rescuing vulnerable children, providing the care they need to reach their God-given potential. Matt and Nora Vos serve at the Oasis Children’s Home in Guatemala caring for girls who have been rescued from forced child labor or physical / sexual abuse.

Teach My People
Teach My People in Pawley’s Island, SC is a unique ministry that takes in ten new first-graders per year who are facing significant economic, academic, or social challenges. TMP makes a twelve year commitment to those students to provide year-round high quality programs that are spiritually driven and “no-cost” to families who are served. Through the expertise of dedicated staff , along with the loving support of over seventy community volunteers, TMP is able to provide academic assistance, character development, cultural and spiritual enrichment, and physical activity daily to ensure that students succeed in both school and life.
Camp Longridge
Camp Longridge is a Christian camp and retreat center tucked away in the deep, piney woods of Ridgeway, South Carolina; just a short drive from the greater Columbia area.
