3. How you can partner with us:
Though our foundation office is in Arizona, our outreach is throughout the entire USA as well as communities throughout the world. ~ We make the best use of every dollar given to fulfill our mission. Each artist has a unique style and personal identity but we all agree on serving our communities with our God given gifts and talents.

1. The reason we formed a Non-Profit Corporation was to enable the receipt of tax deductible donations. We also wanted to be accountable to a board of persons who would advise us in our on-going ministry and how to best use the funds we receive. In addition each presenter/artist is required to continue in his/her spiritual development, life-long formation, education and keeping up with technologies that support our outreach.
* Keeping in mind, with the number of people who now stream music without paying the artists, the income of our artists has been cut in half. With an average of only $.008 per play you can see how important it is to make sure our artists are compensated justly. The music we write, pay to have recorded and provide at all our events comes at great personal and financial cost and yet the far too common thought by the consumer is that it is their's to simply take. |
2. Through the foundation we accomplish a number of goals.
We assist solid Catholic artists and speakers in carrying out the needed work of Evangelizing and Catechizing in ways that really work. Of course an important element is the funding of events and recorded projects that are used for Catechesis. On going artist development, faith formation and assistance in preparing the most effective presentations. This makes possible: Healing in families, proper ongoing formation for Sacramental living and strengthening communities by building a foundation of faith. When individuals are strong in their faith the ripple effect makes a huge difference in the community at large. |
