“Across the world, thousands of Christian charities are doing powerful, life-giving work. Many are discipling youth, planting churches, providing clean water, and caring for the vulnerable. But often, these ministries remain underfunded and overlooked. Their impact is real, but their story is hidden. They lack the tools, strategy, and support to engage local donors and grow a sustainable base of local support.
That’s where Local Soil comes in.
Local Soil exists to help these ministries grow deep roots and bear lasting fruit where they’ve been planted. We equip Christian nonprofits with a clear, repeatable model to articulate their mission, connect with local donors, and strengthen their long-term funding. Through our tested, proven and repeatable programs, we help leaders turn vision into a sustainable path forward.
We believe the Kingdom of God grows best in local soil — nurtured by faithful people, rooted in local communities, and supported by local generosity.
When you support Local Soil, you help high-impact ministries tell their story, inspire giving, and thrive for the long haul. Together, we’re cultivating stronger soil for the good work God is already doing, so that more seeds are planted, more fruit is harvested, and more lives are transformed.”
