IMPACT ZIMBABWE

Political unrest remains in Zimbabwe and clouds the run-off election pending for later this month. The opposition leader is back in the country but in and out of detention at the whim and fancy of Mugabe! Many NGO's are being expelled as Mugabe seeks to maintain control and keep his reputation as one of the world's most tyrannical leaders.

Despite all of this Impact International along with its partners in Zimbabwe is in the process of forming Impact Zimbabwe which will spearhead a national transformation movement. The Kingdom of God does not retreat in the face of the kingdoms of this world made by man - it advances! That is our intent. Plans are underway for orphanages, feeding programs, church planting, health clinics etc. that will form the basis of a national transformation and leave a legacy for the future.

The Kingdom Endowment model is moving forward and we see clearly how the national transformation of Zimbabwe can be funded with substantial financing from Kingdom Add-On (see marketplace on our web site). Funding is not only forthcoming from US partners but largely our Impact Zimbabwe Trust and key business entrepreneurs within the nation. Our funding effort towards national transformation is unique, in that it is expected that large volumes of money for the initiative will come from within the nation.

As a part of our funding for the national transformation effort, the Impact Zimbabwe Board along with Impact International will form the Zimbabwe Academy Of Entrepreneurship. An alliance (partnership) has been established with The Nehemiah Project and its courses on Biblical Entrepreneurship. Regent University also partners with us to offer certification for all students in the entrepreneurship academy. This business school will train suitable entrepreneurs who will be financially assisted by The Kingdom Endowment Fund with seed and start up costs. This model offers jobs for the new business executive, jobs through employment, funds for the local church through tithing AND also these new business leaders will be taught the mission of Impact - leave a legacy and add to The Kingdom Endowment Fund for national transformation.

We believe we have a God given assignment, an exciting concept and a firm belief of success! 'With God, all things are possible'.

We have hired a graphic designer to assist with the weekly updates for our web site, so we will shortly be able to add photos and more graphics to our site to serve you better. Stay in touch, we need you!
