Together we can break the cycle of economic and spiritual poverty
Franklinton Rising is working with each individual over time, helping them to change their worldview, including opportunity, work, and man’s purpose on earth, while developing self-confidence and realizing the satisfaction of accomplishments. Real change takes time, persistence, and impacts family, friends, and society. Your financial support is what makes this possible.
The Institute for Research and Poverty reported that research suggests that each child in poverty can cost society between $500,000 and $1,500,000 over their lifetime due to lost economic productivity, increased healthcare costs, and social service usage.
Your support helps young adults develop skills for a productive life, basic construction skills, and a faith-based foundation to navigate a successful life, as well as transforming inner-city neighborhoods.
Any donation you make is greatly appreciated.
The impact of your involvement.
Two of our former apprentices and their spouses are living in our rebuilt properties, with eight children between them, making a total of 12 people who are not in poverty. Accordingly, these numbers indicate a potential saving to society of over $10,000,000 over their lifetime.
Consider the impact of 20-30 more apprentices now working, earning a living to keep them out of economic poverty, and many trusting in the Lord and encouraging others.
