“I am so thankful for Hope Academy and Spreading Hope. The church where I previously served started a school in 2014 inspired by Hope Academy. I can’t imagine where Faith Academy would be today without their guidance.”
K-12 education is an unparalleled missional opportunity in urban American cities. But how do you start a school? That was the question I had – and Spreading Hope Network gave us the answers. They provided the coaching, encouragement, resources, and many other pieces we needed to plant an excellent Christian school in a low-income context. Kenosha Christian Academy wouldn’t be here without Spreading Hope.
