EQUIP Raises $135 Million to Empower Global Leaders: Salt & Light Initiative on the Rise

EQUIP Leadership®, a prominent non-profit devoted to training and mobilizing effective Christian leaders, has announced a remarkable funding achievement of $135 million. Founded in 1996 by brothers John and Larry Maxwell, EQUIP® has been at the forefront of leadership development, emphasizing the importance of servant leadership modeled by Jesus Christ. The organization’s mission is clear: to train men and women who are committed to making a meaningful impact in their communities and beyond. With over 6 million leaders trained through the Million Leader Mandate across 196 countries, EQUIP is poised to elevate its reach even further. The newly raised funds will directly support the Salt & Light Global Initiative, an ambitious strategy designed to empower believers to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with unchurched populations across the globe. This initiative seeks to raise up 500,000 facilitators and establish 500,000 roundtables, aiming to inspire one million new believers by 2022. The funds will enable EQUIP to expand its training programs, enhance resources for Volunteer Associate Trainers, and facilitate conferences that focus on community transformation. As EQUIP embarks on this monumental journey, it encourages individuals, churches, and businesses to join its movement, ensuring that the principles of Biblical servant leadership continue to flourish in every corner of the world. With a clear focus on the completion of the Great Commission, EQUIP Leadership is set to usher in a new era of hope, influence, and spiritual renewal.
