“Look among the nations! Observe!
Be astonished! Wonder!
Because I am doing something in your days
You would not believe if you were told.”
Habakkuk 1:5
“Confronting Poverty with Opportunity” is our strategy to help people work their way out of poverty, transforming their lives, their children’s futures and their communities.
Because entrepreneurs so powerfully shape a community by building the businesses that build its economy…
And because a community thrives when it embodies the freedom, justice and service to others found in a Biblical worldview…
Our sole focus is investing expertise, resources and a Biblical worldview in Musanze’s entrepreneurs.
Objectives
(1) Developing the indigenous capacity of an impoverished community to provide health, education and opportunity for itself by investing expertise, resources and Biblical worldview in its existing and emerging entrepreneurs.
(2) Mobilizing Christ followers with marketplace expertise to expand the Kingdom by inviting them to join us on a high-impact mission that stretches their faith, uses their strengths and allows them to lead.
(3) Empowering both those served and those serving to live out a Biblical worldview in their home, business and community.
Driving Concepts
(1) It is highly strategic to invest in an impoverished community’s entrepreneurs because they build the businesses that build their community’s economic capacity to solve its own problems, and because anyone with a marketplace expertise, from plumber to executive, can make an investment.
(2) Significant numbers of Christ followers in the developed-world are waiting for us to create high-impact, service opportunities and then invite them to join us there because they’re not going to create them, and they’re not going without us.
(3) Helping developed-world Christ followers and undeveloped-world entrepreneurs live out a Biblical worldview causes both communities and economies to thrive.
