Kingdom Investment International

What Kingdom Investment International does

Kingdom Investment International, Inc. (KII) is a Christian nonprofit organization founded in 2008 and headquartered at 565 Metro Place South, Suite 300, Dublin, Ohio. Incorporated in Ohio, USA, the organization operates seven integrated humanitarian programs in Burkina Faso: Micro-Finance Entrepreneurs, School of Leadership & Development, Water Project, Agriculture Enterprise Business Program, Pastors & Leaders Training, Eye Care & Dental Project, and Weaving Grace Ministry for widows. It is led by founder Jean-Paul Tiendrebeogo (President & CEO) and his wife Rita Tiendrebeogo, supported by a small core staff of approximately 5 (including a Director of Prayer Initiative, Community Program Coordinator, and multiple Weaving Grace Ministry Coordinators) plus volunteers, and governed by a board chaired by Jared O. Hodge.

The organization has no proprietary technology and delivers its services through on-the-ground partnerships with indigenous Burkina Faso churches and community leaders. Its technology footprint is limited to a Wix-hosted website, a Church Center online donation platform, and standard social media presence on Facebook and Instagram. The only documented production asset cited is the completion of two community-sustained wells under the Water Project.

KII's business model is donor-funded, not commercial. It raises funds through one-time and recurring online donations, check and electronic bill pay, planned giving (memorial, estate, stock, non-cash), and offline contributions from individuals, faith-based organizations, and corporations. Donor acquisition runs through church networks, word-of-mouth, the founder's personal testimony, mission trip recruitment, prayer intercessors, and a downloadable PDF magazine. The organization explicitly does not publicly disclose financials.

Direct peers

• Compassion International: Large evangelical child sponsorship and development organization operating across multiple developing countries. Highly comparable to KII's child sponsorship (School of Leadership) and holistic development model, though at vastly greater scale.
• Lifewater International: Christian nonprofit focused exclusively on clean water access in developing countries. Directly comparable to KII's Water Project in mission, methodology, and donor base, though operating at greater scale.
• Pioneers: Evangelical missions organization focused on church planting and disciple-making among unreached people groups. Directly comparable to KII's pastoral training and Great Commission focus in West Africa.

Emerging players
