What claiming does How does your 990 look to donors? Take the 10-Question Audit

Ministry teams worldwide often work to solve similar sets of issues within their ministry context. Many teams are unaware of what efforts are already taking place outside of their immediate network of relationships. The reality is that few teams can or even want to spend all their time on networking and professional development. We know cooperation between ministries tends to form slowly. Exponent Group was created to learn from workers on the ground and to "stand in the gaps" between ministries that desire to collaborate and partner for kingdom work. Our on-the-field experience allows US to care for disciple-makers at a deeper level than their tools and strategies. We desire to see your ministry freed from trying to reinvent the wheel regarding practical ministry skills and rhythms for sustainable work. For ministry start-ups and established organizations looking to make a change, we welcome you into a collaborative network that supports your ongoing learning without drawing you away

Names, privacy, and removal requests More

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
