HOW IT WORKS

HEPHZIBAH62:4 PARTNER CHURCHES AT ANY LEVEL CAN CREATE BIG IMPACT IN 5 SMALL STEPS:

  1. Pray, research and discover a need or gap in resources in your community that aligns with our mission of transforming the lives of vulnerable children.   
  2. Develop a Project62:4 Plan and apply to lead a short-term ministry project that will help fill that need or gap. 
  3. Receive up to $250 in Project62:4 seed money.
  4. Rally your team to bring your Project62:4 to life.
  5. Share your story of impact by submitting a Project62:4 Evaluation and photos, so we can celebrate and inspire others with your success.
