Fortunately\, there are alternative Christmas programs that find dignifying\, creative ways to give parents the opportunity to take the lead in providing a joy-filled Christmas for their kids. \nJoin True Charity for a panel discussion featuring two ministry leaders who run Christmas Markets\, or affordable Christmas programs. You can look forward to discussion on the following: \n-Ideas for sourcing the gifts-How to price toys-Tips for recruiting parents who would benefit-How to get your board\, staff\, and volunteers on board with a contribution-based model \nOur panelists will also share about their own journeys implementing a Christmas market\, including the challenges and the wins. Come with questions! \nOur panelists: \nDebbie Wells is a case manager at InnerMission\, the outreach arm of The Gate Church that runs an affordable Christmas Market to help low-income families in their community and connect them to the church. \nBryan Lewis is the President and CEO of Hope House Ministries\, a nonprofit that operates an affordable Christmas program each year that allows parents to provide gifts for their children for one-tenth of the retail value. \n \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_VkVaTvcmSyinRc6JeM9fUA” button_text=”Register now” button_alignment=”center” admin_label=”Button” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”25px” button_bg_color=”#002336″ button_border_width=”8px” background_layout=”dark” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][/et_pb_button][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

Would your shelter be protected if you chose not to let a man who identifies as a woman stay in the women’s dormitory? Would your nonprofit be prepared for a legal battle if you declined to hire someone who did not adhere to your organization’s biblical beliefs? \nJoin True Charity for our webinar in partnership with The Alliance Defending Freedom\, the world’s largest organization committed to defending religious liberty. In this webinar\, we’ll explore the current religious liberty landscape and focus on how your nonprofit or church can create quality governing documents that will help defend your organization in the case of a legal battle. \n  \nHarrison Smith is the Senior Regional Alliance Director with Alliance Defending Freedom and has served there for 9 years. He works with major ministry and denominational leaders across the country on religious liberty issues to ensure that the body of Christ understands the current cultural and legal climate and knows how to respond via the resources available to them through the ADF Church Alliance. \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Hbc6ImqeRYuAMA0ntlwcKg” button_text=”Register now” button_alignment=”center” admin_label=”Button” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”25px” button_bg_color=”#002336″ button_border_width=”8px” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_button][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

SUMMARY:Webinar: How to Help Clients Transition off Welfare

However\, welfare programs frequently penalize individuals who take steps toward stability – specifically by penalizing work and marriage. Fortunately\, there are tools to assist church and nonprofit leaders to help their clients understand and\, potentially\, avoid the pitfalls of the welfare system. \nJoin True Charity and Georgia Center for Opportunity for an exploration of GCO’s Welfare Cliff Calculator. You’ll leave this webinar armed with helpful information\, tools\, and strategies so you can confidently create tailored plans that genuinely help your clients succeed. You will also leave better prepared to advocate for reforming a system that is trapping too many of the people in poverty you serve. \n  \nEric Cochling serves as Chief Program Officer and General Counsel at Georgia Center for Opportunity\, managing GCO’s programs and providing legal guidance to the organization. He has played an instrumental role in the development of GCO’s Welfare Cliff Calculator\, a tool designed to help low-income individuals and those who serve them navigate a smooth transition off welfare. \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_AcIKXZHaSvOqWZqSdax85w” button_text=”Register now” button_alignment=”center” admin_label=”Button” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”25px” button_bg_color=”#002336″ button_border_width=”8px” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_button][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

We’ll gather together for an intensive dive into the principles and practice of effective charity.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDate: November 2\, 2022\nTime: 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.\nLocation: Immanuel Church; 325 104th Ave.\, Holland\, MI 49423\nCost: $20 – includes lunch and materials\n\n\n\n\n\nBased on the 7 Marks of Effective Compassion as outlined in Dr. Marvin Olasky’s groundbreaking book The Tragedy of American Compassion\, this event will couple dynamic presentations with opportunities for deep discussion and collaboration amongst attendees.

We’ll discuss this tricky question and learn the critical importance of restoring key relationships in a person’s life as they journey toward self-sufficiency.\nBonding – What is the role of relationship between charity staff/volunteers and the person in need? We’ll discuss the importance of strong social networks and give practical guidance for establishing these game-changing relationships.\nCategorization – Well-executed charity operates from the understanding that different situations call for different charitable responses\, and that one-size-fits-all approaches are rarely the solution. We’ll share about different categories of need and corresponding appropriate charitable responses.\nDiscernment – You’ve heard the quote “knowledge is power.” Charity is no exception! We’ll explore how prudent action\, rooted in accurate information brought about by observation\, investigation\, and communication\, is essential to effective charity\, and explore tools that can help us do just that.\nExchange – The duty to honor a person’s dignity and capacity is as delicate as it is vital. Learn how an “earn-it” model of charity can awaken a person’s sense of self-worth and set them on a path toward flourishing\, and see the ways different charities have put this into practice.\nFreedom – Can charity be enslaving? Yes\, for both the helper and the helped– misguided charity can produce paternalism for the former and dependence for the latter. Together\, we’ll reimagine how charity can preserve a person’s vital freedom rather than diminish it.\nGod – We’ll dive into the research demonstrating the crucial difference that faith makes in a person’s journey out of poverty\, on the part of both the helper and the helped.\n\n\n\n\n\n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]\n      \n        \n      \n    [/et_pb_code][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

In theory\, that common vision is a uniting force. In practice\, however\, division runs rampant between organizations with similar goals. If left unchecked\, pride and greed can crowd out the humility and generosity necessary for effective collaboration across organizational lines. How can we combat division in order to see more success in our common mission? \nJoin the True Charity Initiative and Peter Greer\, President and CEO of Hope International\, for an exploration of unifying principles as outlined in his book Rooting for Rivals. We’ll not only learn why collaboration is necessary for advancement\, but how it can be done in a way where everyone wins. \nPeter Greer is the president and CEO of HOPE International\, a global Christ-centered economic development organization serving throughout Africa\, Asia\, Latin America\, and Eastern Europe. As an advocate for the Church’s role in missions and alleviating extreme poverty\, Peter has co-authored 15 books\, including Rooting for Rivals (selected as a 2019 Leadership Resource of the Year in Outreach magazine)\, Mission Drift (selected as a 2015 Book Award Winner from Christianity Today)\, and The Spiritual Danger of Doing Good (selected as one of the top 40 books on poverty by WORLD magazine). \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_UrXp3TXeSt-_I-Y9nnxyGQ” button_text=”Register now” button_alignment=”center” admin_label=”Button” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”25px” button_bg_color=”#002336″ button_border_width=”8px” background_layout=”dark” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][/et_pb_button][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

Why? Because they knew that the real vehicle for transformation of circumstances was through relationship. \nSo often\, though\, our poverty alleviation strategies sure look a lot like tongs: with the best of intentions\, we load people up with food or clothing and send them on our way. But perhaps the real act of mercy more often looks like a willingness to walk alongside the person in poverty on his path and help find the way to smoother trails. But what does it look like to “walk alongside” someone in poverty? Where does one even begin? \nJoin the True Charity Initiative on Tuesday\, August 9th 12-1 pm CST for a panel discussion featuring nonprofit leaders who prioritize relationship-building and have built successful mentoring programs. They’ll share how to get a mentoring program started\, best practices for creating real relationships\, and “lessons learned” along the way. \n  \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_jWxvr-E8S6Glfe7yLnXzFQ” button_text=”Register now” button_alignment=”center” admin_label=”Button” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”25px” button_bg_color=”#002336″ background_layout=”dark” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” button_border_width=”8px” sticky_enabled=”0″][/et_pb_button][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

Indeed\, research has shown that the poor tend to be disconnected from family\, friends\, neighbors\, and community\, wreaking havoc on their health and stability and hindering their path out of poverty. This suggests that perhaps the foremost act of charity should be kindling a connection with those in need– but many are hesitant. How do you break the ice? How do you balance encouragement and confrontation? What if there are difficult root issues at play? \nJoin the True Charity Initiative for in-depth training on mentorship across two evenings – Sunday July 17 and Sunday July 24th from 10:45 -11:45 am\, hosted by Christ’s Church of Oronogo. We’ll equip attendees with practical tips and tools that can help you confidently develop real relationships with those in need. If you understand the value of embedding those in need in a loving community but struggle to know how to take the first step\, this training is for you! \nYou will learn: \n\nFeatures of a healthy mentoring relationship\nThe importance of promoting self-sufficiency\nTechniques for evaluating and goal-setting\nTips for navigating tricky areas such as confrontation\n\nThere is no required fee for this training but we appreciate you registering below so we know how many workbooks to supply. A small donation at the door is encouraged for your materials. \n  \n[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

We’ll gather together for an intensive dive into the principles and practice of effective charity.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsor: The Hope Center of El Dorado Springs\nDate: Monday & Tuesday\, June 27-28\, 2022\nTime: 8 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.; 9 a.m. – 11 a.m.\nContent: First Day-Foundations Workshop\, Second Day-Charity Tracker Demo (bring your laptop on the 28th)\nLocation: Community Church\, 2375 S 171 Road\, El Dorado Springs\, MO 64744\nCost: Free – Thank you to the Hope Center for Sponsoring!\n\n\n\n\n\nBased on the 7 Marks of Effective Compassion as outlined in Dr. Marvin Olasky’s groundbreaking book The Tragedy of American Compassion\, this event will couple dynamic presentations with opportunities for deep discussion and collaboration amongst attendees. Join us for this refreshing opportunity to explore principles of relational\, responsible charity and to strategize with other vested community members to truly move the poverty needle in El Dorado Springs.\nWe’ll also explore Charity Tracker\, an online collaboration tool being used in communities across the United States. Charity Tracker is a secure\, web-based case management sharing tool that allows churches\, charities\, and other nonprofits to communicate about how they are helping individuals in need in their community. This tool empowers your organization with information recorded in real time about how your client has been previously assisted.\nHere’s a glimpse of the day’s content: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAffiliation – Who is most responsible to help a person in need? We’ll discuss this tricky question and learn the critical importance of restoring key relationships in a person’s life as they journey toward self-sufficiency.\nBonding – What is the role of relationship between charity staff/volunteers and the person in need? We’ll discuss the importance of strong social networks and give practical guidance for establishing these game-changing relationships.\nCategorization – Well-executed charity operates from the understanding that different situations call for different charitable responses\, and that one-size-fits-all approaches are rarely the solution. We’ll share about different categories of need and corresponding appropriate charitable responses.\nDiscernment – You’ve heard the quote “knowledge is power.” Charity is no exception! We’ll explore how prudent action\, rooted in accurate information brought about by observation\, investigation\, and communication\, is essential to effective charity\, and explore tools that can help us do just that.\nExchange – The duty to honor a person’s dignity and capacity is as delicate as it is vital. Learn how an “earn-it” model of charity can awaken a person’s sense of self-worth and set them on a path toward flourishing\, and see the ways different charities have put this into practice.\nFreedom – Can charity be enslaving? Yes\, for both the helper and the helped– misguided charity can produce paternalism for the former and dependence for the latter. Together\, we’ll reimagine how charity can preserve a person’s vital freedom rather than diminish it.\nGod – We’ll dive into the research demonstrating the crucial difference that faith makes in a person’s journey out of poverty\, on the part of both the helper and the helped.\n\n\n\n\n\n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]\n      \n        \n      \n    [/et_pb_code][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

SUMMARY:Measuring Outcomes: Lessons From the Front Lines

Even if you’re not familiar with this phrase\, you’ve doubtless felt it: it’s the constant pull felt by the mountain of small tasks and unending checklists. And\, if left unchecked\, the urgent things can cause well-meaning nonprofit and church leaders to neglect mission-critical components such as vision\, strategy\, and program/process improvement. \nBut well-structured\, effective programs require intentional checks “under the hood”– what’s working? What’s not? How can you tell? Measurement of long-term results such as employment\, education\, stable housing\, and family reunifications can guide this important process– but where does one even begin in measuring progress in those key areas? \nJoin the True Charity Initiative and Better Together on June 14th from 12-1 pm CST for a candid discussion on outcomes measurement. Megan Rose\, CEO of Better Together\, will present on this important topic\, using her own experience and “lessons learned” from  measuring outcomes at Better Together. If you’re part of a poverty-fighting charity or nonprofit\, make sure to join us for lively discussion on how to effectively measure impact! \n  \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_EW348cpGSG2nrF3MZobFKw” button_text=”Register now” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”25px” button_bg_color=”#002336″ background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_button][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

From our intricate bodily systems\, to our nuanced emotions\, to our precise likes and dislikes and unique personality traits\, humans are a profound display of detailed complexity. But why does that matter? How can we harness the varying personalities\, capacities\, and talents of people to foster a flourishing society? \nJoin the True Charity Initiative Thursday\, June 9th from 12-1:30 pm for a Lunch and Learn on Christian anthropology. We’ll discuss a biblical view of the unique characteristics and roles of the human person and explore how that ultimately informs our views about everything else\, from economics to government to charity. We’ll have compelling discussion on how our charity work can reflect the dignified nature of the human person. Suggested donation for lunch is $5. Seating is limited\, so reserve your spot today! \n[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

Indeed\, research has shown that the poor tend to be disconnected from family\, friends\, neighbors\, and community\, wreaking havoc on their health and stability and hindering their path out of poverty. This suggests that perhaps the foremost act of charity should be kindling a connection with those in need– but many are hesitant. How do you break the ice? How do you balance encouragement and confrontation? What if there are difficult root issues at play? \nJoin the True Charity Initiative for in-depth training on mentorship across two evenings – Monday\, February 28th and Monday March 7th from 6:30 – 8:30 pm. We’ll equip attendees with practical tips and tools that can help you confidently develop real relationships with those in need. If you understand the value of embedding those in need in a loving community but struggle to know how to take the first step\, this training is for you! \nYou will learn: \n\nFeatures of a healthy mentoring relationship\nThe importance of promoting self-sufficiency\nTechniques for evaluating and goal-setting\nTips for navigating tricky areas such as confrontation\n\nThere is no required fee for this training but we appreciate you registering below so we know how many workbooks to supply.

We’ll gather together for an intensive dive into the principles and practice of effective charity.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDate: Friday\, February 11\, 2022\nTime: 8 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.\nLocation: Wellspring Church\, 2424 N. Main Street\, Webb City\, MO 64870\nCost: $50 for lunch and materials\, True Charity Network members: $40\n\n\n\n\n\nBased on the 7 Marks of Effective Compassion as outlined in Dr. Marvin Olasky’s groundbreaking book The Tragedy of American Compassion\, this event will couple dynamic presentations with opportunities for deep discussion and collaboration amongst attendees. Join us for this refreshing opportunity to explore principles of relational\, responsible charity and to strategize with other vested community members to truly move the poverty needle.\nHere’s a glimpse of the day’s content: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAffiliation – Who is most responsible to help a person in need? We’ll discuss this tricky question and learn the critical importance of restoring key relationships in a person’s life as they journey toward self-sufficiency.\nBonding – What is the role of relationship between charity staff/volunteers and the person in need? We’ll discuss the importance of strong social networks and give practical guidance for establishing these game-changing relationships.\nCategorization – Well-executed charity operates from the understanding that different situations call for different charitable responses\, and that one-size-fits-all approaches are rarely the solution. We’ll share about different categories of need and corresponding appropriate charitable responses.\nDiscernment – You’ve heard the quote “knowledge is power.” Charity is no exception! We’ll explore how prudent action\, rooted in accurate information brought about by observation\, investigation\, and communication\, is essential to effective charity\, and explore tools that can help us do just that.\nExchange – The duty to honor a person’s dignity and capacity is as delicate as it is vital. Learn how an “earn-it” model of charity can awaken a person’s sense of self-worth and set them on a path toward flourishing\, and see the ways different charities have put this into practice.\nFreedom – Can charity be enslaving? Yes\, for both the helper and the helped– misguided charity can produce paternalism for the former and dependence for the latter. Together\, we’ll reimagine how charity can preserve a person’s vital freedom rather than diminish it.\nGod – We’ll dive into the research demonstrating the crucial difference that faith makes in a person’s journey out of poverty\, on the part of both the helper and the helped.\n\n\n\n\n\n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_code admin_label=”Code” _builder_version=”4.9.2″ z_index_tablet=”500″ global_colors_info=”{}”]\n      \n        \n      \n    [/et_pb_code][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

SUMMARY:The Trauma-Informed Poverty Fighter: A Webinar with Dave Lockridge
DESCRIPTION:[et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Section” _builder_version=”3.22″][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.2″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”] \nThose on the frontlines of poverty alleviation are well-acquainted with the counter-productive\, harmful\, and even bizarre behavior that so often accompanies poverty: stunted emotional development\, lack of self-control\, irrational or risky behavior\, and a propensity for numbing agents such as drugs or alcohol are common issues. \nThe persistence and severity of these problems can be a head scratcher and a headache for poverty fighters. But untangling these deep-seated issues doesn’t have to be a mystery: as it turns out\, there is rhyme and reason behind many of these harmful habits and hang-ups. Trauma\, if left unaddressed\, wreaks havoc on the mind and heart of the person who experienced it\, leaving mental and emotional scars that often manifest themselves as dysfunctional behavior. More frightening still is the tendency of those who have experienced trauma to perpetuate it: using and abusing others\, just as they have been used and abused. \nIs there hope for those who have experienced life’s worst atrocities? Can we help put a stop to the perpetuation of trauma? Is there a way to sensitively and intelligently respond to troubling behaviors? At True Charity\, we give a resounding “yes!” to these questions and invite you to join us for an exploration of the impact and healing of trauma. \nJoin True Charity Initiative for a webinar featuring Dave Lockridge\, Founder and CEO of ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) Overcomers. Dave is a recognized leader in the trauma-informed movement both nationally and internationally who takes a scientific yet sensitive approach to issues of trauma. This introductory webinar is perfect for those who need a basic understanding of and strategy for addressing trauma. \nAfter the presentation\, there will be an opportunity to engage Dave for a time of Q&A. True Charity Network members will receive exclusive on-demand access to the recording of the webinar. You can learn more and sign up for the True Charity Network here. \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_R5MR2S74RYWKhYlLu2-AlA” button_text=”Register for the Webinar” _builder_version=”4.9.2″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ custom_button=”on” button_text_color=”#FFFFFF” sticky_enabled=”0″ button_bg_color=”#E09900″ button_bg_enable_color=”on” button_alignment=”center”][/et_pb_button][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

DESCRIPTION:UPDATE: This class is full! Keep an eye out for our next quarterly mentorship training. \nFor those living in chronic poverty\, the root need is not for material things– rather\, so often the root need is for relationships. Indeed\, research has shown that the poor tend to be disconnected from family\, friends\, neighbors\, and community\, wreaking havoc on their health and stability and hindering their path out of poverty. This suggests that perhaps the foremost act of charity should be kindling a connection with those in need– but many are hesitant. How do you break the ice? How do you balance encouragement and confrontation? What if there are difficult root issues at play? \nJoin the True Charity Initiative for an in-depth training on mentorship Monday\, August 23rd from 5:30-8 pm. We’ll equip attendees with practical tips and tools that can help you confidently develop real relationships with those in need. If you understand the value of embedding those in need in a loving community but struggle to know how to take the first step\, this training is for you! \nDinner will be provided. There is a suggested donation of $10 at the door.
