Kenya — Gataragwa Water Project / Community Water Storage
Who can apply: Not applicable — ongoing Teleios partner project.
Teleios Ministry assists indigenous people in developing God-given visions into an authentic, real-life ministry centered in Jesus Christ. The organization develops mutually beneficial partnerships and networks to provide spiritual, emotional, intellectual, and financial resources to bridge the gap between vision and reality.
Teleios Ministry’s recent giving is anchored by a $37,303 grant to RoAR - Rediscovering Outdoor Activities & Recreation for a demonstration property. That pattern points to a funder that supports facilities and project sites as well as direct ministry needs, especially where a property, center, or shelter model is part of the work. The foundation’s grantmaking also reaches residential care and shelter operations, including a $25,000 award to Team Walhalla Youth Athletics for safe house programs and a $5,000 grant to Good Neighbor Homeless Shelter for homeless shelter support. Across its active programs, Teleios Ministry backs children’s homes, ministry centers, child welfare, and community projects, with a clear concentration in faith-based and service-oriented work. Its portfolio includes support for children’s camps, orphan care, ministry centers, plumbing and trades training, and livelihood projects, alongside programs tied to church planting, education, water, agriculture, and basic needs. The foundation is a public charity with annual grants of $100,203 and assets of $630,240, and its recent grants show a mix of larger project support and smaller designated gifts.
In child welfare and residential care, Teleios Ministry supports New Life Children's Home through its Romania project funding and also backs children’s camps and ministry centers in Romania, including work in Peris, Sacele, Apalina, and Reghin-area communities. Those grants tie child-focused services to facility support, accessibility, and ongoing ministry operations. In livelihood and economic development work, the foundation funds women’s small business grants in Nyeri County, Kenya, with examples including shoe and bag kiosks, donkey carts, poultry projects, and vocational training. It also supports small business start-up capital in Tanzania and agricultural sustainability projects in Kenya, including goats, seed packages, water tanks, and rainwater collection systems. Teleios Ministry also funds basic-needs and education-linked programs. Kidete Feeding Program in Tanzania provides a daily full meal for nursery and primary school children, while Kenya plumbing education grants support trades training and modern plumbing practices.
Teleios Ministry’s recent awards range from $5,000 to $37,303, with a smaller designated gift pattern also visible in its active programs, such as $150–$350 women’s empowerment grants in Kenya and $100–$200 microfinance support in Tanzania. The foundation appears to combine project-level grants with targeted, low-dollar support for individual initiatives and communities. Its grantmaking includes both unsolicited and designated support: some active programs accept unsolicited requests, while others are routed through Teleios-linked projects or partner ministries. The organization is a public charity, not a fund for individuals, and it does not make program-related investments.
