OUR COMMUNITY MAKEOVER COMBINED THE EFFORTS OF 110 CHURCHES, NON-PROFITS, BUSINESSES, AND CLUBS TO ACCOMPLISH MORE THAN 1,000 PROJECTS WITH OVER 12,000 VOLUNTEERS. WE SERVED AND PARTNERED WITH A HUGE VARIETY OF SCHOOLS, CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS, AND PEOPLE OF ALL BACKGROUNDS TO ENRICH THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE. THROUGH PARTNERSHIP WE PROVIDED OVER 2500 BACKPACKS FILLED WITH SCHOOL SUPPLIES TO CHILDREN IN NEED. 261615 159677 ENGAGE BURKINA: WE HAVE ALSO BEEN OPERATING WITH A DBA CALLED ENGAGE BURKINA TO PROVIDE WATER, AID IN EDUCATION, BUILD CHURCHES, AND PROVIDE HUMANITARIAN AID TO THE BURKINABE PEOPLE IN BURKINA FASO, WEST AFRICA. AS OF DECEMBER 2011, WE HAVE HAD DIRECT OVERSIGHT OF THE DIGGING OR DRILLING OF 70 WELLS, AND HAD COMPLETED PLANS FOR ANOTHER 45 THAT ARE BEING EXECUTED IN 2012. WE HAVE ALSO ADDED MULTIPLE CLASSROOMS AND CAPACITY TO THE LYCEE ALLIANCE CHRISTIENNE, ONE OF THE HIGHEST PERFORMING SCHOOLS IN THE COUNTRY. ONCE THIS PROJECT IS COMPLETED WE WILL BE MOVING TOWARDS BUILDING SEVERAL OTHER ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS, AND THE POSSIBILITY OF ANOTHER HIGH SCHOOL AND VO-TECH SCHOOL IN THE CAPITAL CITY OF OUAGADOUGOU. THROUGH 2011 WE HAVE BUILT 11 CHURCHES AMONG VILLAGES THAT HAVE FIRST REQUESTED A NEED WITH PLANS FOR MORE IN THE UPCOMING YEAR. THE FACILITIES THAT WE BUILD BECOME THE MOST VITAL AND SIGNIFICANT IN AN ENTIRE VILLAGE ONCE COMPLETED. WE ARE MAKING PLANS AND FORMING PARTNERSHIPS TO FURTHER DEVELOP OPPORTUNITIES TO PROVIDE GREATER HUMANITARIAN AID, SUCH AS GRAIN TO THE POOREST OF VILLAGES. WE ARE WORKING TO PROVIDE FURTHER SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS FOR POVERTY INCLUDING GREENHOUSES, EDUCATING VILLAGE PEOPLE ABOUT HOW TO SELL AND MARKET THEIR OWN PRODUCTS AND MORE. BECAUSE ENGAGE BURKINA HAS BECOME SUCH A SIGNIFICANT INITIATIVE IN AND OF ITSELF THAT WE ARE MOVING FORWARD IN FILING ITS OWN 501C3 IN 2012. IT IS OUR HOPE THAT THIS MOVE WILL MORE CLEARLY DEFINE BOTH INITIATIVES (ENGAGE ATLANTA AND ENGAGE BURKINA) AND CREATE A MORE SUCCESSFUL ENVIRONMENT FOR BOTH. 305734 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 1 0 1 false false false false false false false false false false false X 6 4 false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false true false false GA X X X REV PAUL RICHARDSON 7702222125 3522 HIRAM ACWORTH HIGHWAY DALLAS GA 30157 PASTOR BRIAN BLOYE 1.00 X X 0 0 0 PASTOR ANTHONY MURRAY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 PASTOR GEORGE WRIGHT 1.00 X 0 0 0 PASTOR DANNY ECHOLS 1.00 X 0 0 0 PASTOR JASON GERDES 1.00 X 0 0 0 PASTOR PETE HIXSON 1.00 X 0 0 0 PASTOR PAUL RICHARDSON 1.00 X 11000 0 0 11000 false false false 421458 421458 6795 3786 3009 3009 424467 3009 159677 159677 12000 10200 600 1200 2037 2037 9657 9657 78593 78593 4372 4186 40 146 2418 2315 22 81 EQUIPMENT RENTAL 18132 18132 COMMUNITY MAKEOVER 17272 17272 WEBSITE DESIGN & MAINT. 8532 8170 78 284 OFFICE EXPENSES 3465 3318 32 115 4487 3871 616 320642 305734 3425 11483 128931 141725 18816 128931 160541 135 0 135 X 128931 160406 128931 160406 128931 160541 X 103825 -72350 X true false true X false X 220734 286906 421458 929098 220734 286906 421458 929098 1858 927240 3009 3009 932107 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false false false false false false false false LIABILITY UNDER FIN 48 FOOTNOTE SCHEDULE D, PAGE 3, PART X THE ORGANIZATION IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE, AS AMENDED, AND IS CLASSIFIED BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE AS OTHER THAN A PRIVATE FOUNDATION.
