Join our Team! Be a Sponsor!

The approximate cost of our mission trip is $3500 per person. The flight to Ghana costs around $2000 and we will have an additional flight expense from DFW to JFK in New York. After that our finances will cover room and board, food, insurance, our visa and we are blessed to have a portion of our trip not only pay for all the art and music supplies for the week, but also we will be helping purchase art supplies for the Village of Hope for the school year.

If you would like to sponsor us financially you may send a check made payable to faithbuilders to the address below, or to use a Credit Card or Debit Card please click the button below. Simply click on Kimberli's name to send an email if you have any questions.

We are thrilled that since faithbuilders is a non-profit ministry, your donation will be tax deductable and you will receive a 2009 tax form from faithbuilders (Tax ID#205023613)

THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for helping in whatever way you feel called. We will be doing fundraisers throughout the next 5 months and we are confident and excited knowing God will provide in ways He has ordained before He called us to Ghana. Please feel free to call us or email us with any questions or fund raising ideas you may have. We will keep you updated on our progress so you can continue to pray for us.
