We Ignite Nations

What We Ignite Nations does

We Ignite Nations (WIN) is a US-registered 501(c)(3) non-profit founded in 1997 by Dr. Leanna Cinquanta and headquartered in Arvada, Colorado. The organization operates a portfolio of humanitarian programs in South Asia — primarily India and Nepal — organized around its "4 E's" framework: Ekklesia (discipleship), Emancipation (anti-trafficking raid and rescue), Education (self-sustaining schools and computer institutes), and Empowerment (water access, micro-finance, vocational training). Programs are delivered through a grassroots network of approximately 30,000 indigenous pastors, social workers, and community leaders rather than expatriate staff, with cumulative reported impact of 1.39 million lives transformed, 1.0 million children prevented from trafficking, and 300+ water wells installed.

The organization's revenue model is donation-dependent and includes individual one-time gifts, monthly recurring programs (Ignite Club from $20/month, Winner's Circle at $200/month), planned/legacy giving through wills and trusts, vision trip fees at $2,500 plus airfare, and event registration such as the EXCELERATE 2026 Global Summit ($75-$150). It is accredited by the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA Member ID 13486) and tax-deductible to US donors. WIN sells no technology product; its "technology stack" is operational — hand pumps, gravity-feed water systems, schools, and a grassroots leader network. It maintains an 11-50 person US HQ staff and reports no subsidiaries, parent company, venture investment, or institutional capital structure.

Distribution is community-led and event-driven: WIN acquires donors through website (win.global), email newsletter, social media (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube), vision trips to project sites, WIN-WIN worldview parties, WIN Champions referrals, and large-scale summits. Beneficiaries are reached directly through indigenous leaders rather than centralized platforms. The organization is expanding into US-based training and donor cultivation via WIN Excelerator and the EXCELERATE 2026 Global Summit, while winding down its 20-year-old Blue Haven Children's Home and adding five new water wells in 2026, signaling a deliberate rebalancing of its program portfolio toward education, economic empowerment, and donor-side community building.

Broad incumbents

• World Vision International: One of the largest Christian humanitarian organizations globally, running sponsorship, water, education, and child protection programs in similar South Asian geographies. Comparable at a portfolio level because both organizations operate faith-rooted, multi-program community development in the same regions.
• Mercy Corps: Large humanitarian organization operating water access, education, and economic empowerment programs across similar geographies. Comparable at the program-category level because both organizations run water systems, schools, and micro-enterprise programs targeting systemic poverty in vulnerable regions.
• Compassion International: One of the largest Christian child sponsorship NGOs globally. Directly comparable because Compassion previously funded WIN's World Changer Academy and operates faith-based child development and education programs across similar South Asian geographies.
• WaterAid: International nonprofit focused on clean water, sanitation, and hygiene in developing regions. Comparable because WIN's WIN Waterwells program delivers hand pumps and gravity-feed systems to villages in similar South Asian geographies, overlapping WaterAid's WASH category.

Direct peers

• Gospel for Asia (GFA World): Faith-based NGO operating in South Asia with a comparable portfolio of indigenous-led churches, schools, and clean water projects. Highly comparable because both organizations rely on indigenous leadership networks and donor-funded sponsorship of wells, schools, and missionaries in the same geographic regions.
• International Justice Mission: Anti-trafficking and modern slavery organization that conducts rescue operations and trains local law enforcement in South Asia. Comparable because IJM operates a raid-and-rescue model alongside prevention and survivor aftercare in the same countries where WIN runs its anti-trafficking task force.
• Food for the Hungry: Christian relief and development organization running community development, education, and anti-poverty programs in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Comparable because of the similar integrated model combining child sponsorship, community development, and self-sustaining graduation approaches in developing regions.

Comparable because HopeChest pairs donor funding with indigenous-led programs and self-sustaining community transformation in vulnerable regions, similar to WIN's empowerment model.
