WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW
We're almost there!
We are growing intentionally in phases so that every part of Acts in the Desert is built sustainably, relationally, and with long-term care in mind. As each phase develops, new opportunities to serve and contribute will grow alongside it.
Acts in the Desert is currently in the final stages of formation. We are actively working toward 501(c)(3) status and securing a permanent location to serve children, families, and foster youth in our community.
Everything you see is ready to launch—we just need the place to call home and people who believe in what we have to offer the community.
A permanent space allows us to:
-
Launch our daycare & thrift store
(creating sustainable revenue) -
Begin life-skills programs immediately
-
Support foster families and youth consistently
-
Qualify for larger grants and funding
Our goal is to secure a campus-style location (such as a school property) that allows multiple programs to operate together. We are actively seeking:
-
Property donations or leads
-
Investors or partners for acquisition
-
Community connections to available spaces
Phase rollouts coming soon!
