Our Staff

Joyful Ministers

Our team is dedicated and friendly. We often say that while people are born with a deep, spiritual need to give, no one is born understanding the complex nuances of philanthropy. That’s why we’re here. This work is our vocation.

Philanthropy really does start with a simple conversation. Get in touch with us today.
