What SENDING PROJECT INC does

The Sending Project is a Kansas City-area Christian ministry nonprofit headquartered at 12480 S Black Bob Rd in Olathe, Kansas, with a seven-person staff. The organization connects and mobilizes the citywide Body of Christ through four interconnected programs: Connection Revolution (multi-network citywide coordination across Heal KC, KC Nations, KC Pastors & Church Leaders, KC Women Leaders, Police & Faith Leaders, and Mission Mobilizers), Scripture Saturation (physical Bible and digital Bible outreach card distribution), Celebration of the Nations (an annual multicultural grand event representing more than 70 nations of KC metro Jesus followers), and Trauma Healing (Bible-based facilitator training using the American Bible Society's curriculum).

The ministry operates without a proprietary technology product; its underlying delivery mechanism is event programming, in-person network gatherings at partner church and seminary venues, and select virtual sessions via Zoom. Programs are distributed through direct partnerships with alliance churches, seminaries (Nazarene Theological Seminary, Kansas Christian College), and national Christian organizations (American Bible Society, National Association of Evangelicals, Unconventional Business Network, Gideons International, Cru, First Priority, Unite KC).

Revenue is generated primarily through individual, church, and business donations, event registration fees (e.g., $175 for Trauma Healing Initial Equipping, $20 for network luncheons, free attendance via promo codes for some events), and event sponsorships. The organization markets through Facebook, YouTube, email newsletters, and its website event calendar, with significant word-of-mouth through partner networks.
