help launch kingtopia College
Kingtopia College is being built to make affordable, Kingdom-rooted graduate education accessible to working adults, single parents, ministry leaders, nonprofit leaders, educators, and community builders.
Before we can launch publicly, we need to complete several foundational steps: filing for 501(c)(3) recognition, building our website and giving page, setting up donation systems, preparing donor materials, and covering early legal, accounting, and administrative needs.
Our First Goal
Our first goal is simple:
Raise $10,000 to Launch Kingtopia Well.
The Leaders Closest to the Work Need Access
Many working adults, single parents, ministry leaders, educators, and community builders are called to lead, but advanced education is often too expensive, too disconnected from real community work, and too difficult to access while balancing work and family responsibilities.
Kingtopia College is being created to change that.
We envision a college where students receive more than courses. They receive formation, mentorship, cohort support, practical leadership development, and affordable graduate education connected to their calling and community.
This is the beginning.
