Frequently Asked Questions
What is Kingdom Alliance Builders?
We launched to serve ministry leaders, and their leadership/development teams as relevant by providing confidential, experienced, and objective outside support. Through non-legal consulting and mentoring, we help leaders strengthen the skills, effectiveness, and value of donor investment in the charities they lead.
Most outstanding outside consultants must charge fees beyond the reach of the many ministries, apostolates, and non-profit organizations, and the very leaders who may need private consulting assistance the most. We seek to fill that gap.
How much do the services of Kingdom Alliance Builders cost?
Kingdom Alliance Builders sessions are $1,500. However, grants are available to those who are unable to afford a consultation.
Although we operate on free will gifts and offerings, we do require reimbursement for actual travel and out-of-pocket expenses. In order to help assist more leaders, ministries/apostolates, and entities in the future, the Board of Directors requests a donation be made to Kingdom Alliance Builders by those able.
Is Kingdom Alliance Builders a tax-exempt non-profit?
