our strategy
our philosophy
We believe all people at least deserve access to the Gospel and the basic means of physical survival. Unfortunately, about half of the world lives in extreme spiritual or physical poverty, with no access to a Bible, a believer, a church or the means of physical well-being, like clean water, adequate nutrition or jobs.
Our philosophy is to fund the most cost-effective programs that best reduce the spiritual and physical poverty levels in the most unreached and impoverished countries in the world.
our goals
to end spiritual poverty
by reaching every unreached people group with the Gospel, according to the Joshua Project.
to end physical poverty
by providing access to basic means of physical survival, according to the Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI).
1. Researching
We consult the most reputable data and metrics to identify the most impoverished regions of the world and what their specific needs are.
2. Consulting
We meet with global and local experts to determine the methods that will most effectively and sustainably improve the poverty metrics within these regions.
3. Evaluating
We find, vet, and partner with only the top organizations whose projects can most effectively improve the poverty metrics in these regions.
4. Funding
100% of our members’ contributions to The Collective Fund are maximized through these cost-effective and high-impact projects.
5. Reporting
We report everything back to our members every 90 days: Real-time portfolio updates, content, stories and financials on The Collective Fund.
By implementing this strategy, our 2021 India project was about $90,000,000 more cost-effective than the traditional giving method. See how in our annual report.
