As a
nonprofit organization we rely on contributions,
rather than sale of products or services to
support the ministry. Being a faith mission, our
dependence is on God as we seek him in prayer,
but we recognise his use of means. The
contributions that fund our ministry come to us
from two main sources:
- By
individuals that give sacrificially above
and beyond their giving to the local
congregation.
- The second
source of our funding comes from the local congregations
and ministries.
The 2006-7
Urban Leadership budget is approximately $270,000
which means that if 200 people committed to
giving just $50,$100 or $200 a month our budget would be
met. Will you partner with us in the area of
financial resources? If you would like to find
out more about how you or your church/ministry
can help us, please feel free to contact us by
