Twelve21 Global exists to bring the hope of Jesus to spiritually dark and impoverished communities.
We engage, equip, and empower the vulnerable to fulfill God’s purpose for their lives and communities.
Twelve21 Global transforms lives through Christ-centered education, empowers families for sustainable development with its Community Transformation Program, and partners with local churches to provide spiritual support and hope to vulnerable communities.
Twelve21 Global is transforming lives through our schools in Bukabwa and Kome Island, Tanzania, where we serve some of the most vulnerable children—those who have been abandoned, rejected, and forgotten. Every year, we welcome new students into our Christ-centered schools, giving them the opportunity to discover their purpose and be empowered by God’s love.
In addition to education, we provide comprehensive support, including meals, uniforms, and school supplies, so each child can thrive. We equip these students with biblical values and leadership skills, preparing them to serve their communities with faith and integrity.
Twelve21 Global’s Community Transformation Program empowers vulnerable families in the communities we serve to identify and address their most pressing needs using their God-given resources in order to achieve sustainable development.
Through a facilitated self-discovery process, families begin to explore all aspects of their lives, including physical, spiritual, economic, and social, and determine strategies to transform them. By equipping families with tools and resources, we empower them to take charge of their health and well-being and build a healthier, self-sufficient, and sustainable community.
Twelve21 Global provides spiritual support to impoverished, vulnerable families in remote villages where deeply ingrained beliefs in witchcraft have led to the social distrust of outsiders and violence against marginalized community members. At root, we aim to see reborn men, women, and children grow and flourish as the light of the gospel touches and transforms every aspect of their communities. Just as Isaiah prophesied that the LORD’s servant would bring forth justice to the nations, and the Spirit would rest upon him; we proclaim that he has come. The king is at hand (Isa 11:2, 42:1)! By proclaiming the hope in Jesus Christ, we are breaking the chains of a spiritual darkness defined by hopelessness and fear.
We work alongside local churches as they shepherd their flocks and persevere in sharing the gospel with their communities. For many vulnerable families, these churches are safe spaces that provide spiritual support, empowering them to rise above their current circumstances.
