We have identified 4 core areas of partnership
Caring for Vulnerable Children
We believe that people are created to function best inside of relationships. At our core we want to know that we matter and that someone is willing to invest in our lives. We believe that God puts the lonely in families (Psalm 68:6a). The family environment is God’s plan to care for lonely people of all ages. AIM5 understands the need to do this at both the local or domestic level as well as champion this at the international level. We will work hard to educate, equip and empower individuals, organizations, churches and NGO’s who speak up for vulnerable children. Every child needs a loving, caring compassionate adult figure in their life. Our Partners in this area are:
- Lifeline Children’s Services
- Young Life
- Village Of Hope Guatemala
- Boys and Girls Club
- Adoption Grants for Kansas Families
- Lifesong For Orphans
- Trash Mountain Project
- GO Ministries
Leadership Development
The truth is, when the leader gets better the organization gets better. We want to invest into the current and next generation leaders. We want to provide resources and experiences so that people can become better leaders. We want to help resource people with the tools needed to lead well. To invest their talents well. When the leader improves so do our communities, states, country and world. Our efforts in this area include:
- Leadership luncheons for local community leaders

Resourcing our Community
We desire to make a difference right in our own back yard. We will partner with local organizations that we would consider our neighbors. Some of our greatest leaders in this country are under resourced. We would love to help make dreams possible to our amazing leaders who lead in areas that are under resourced. Some of our efforts in this area include:
- TARC
- V Foundation
- Tell The World Topeka Concert
- Make a Wish Foundation
- The Bridge
- Topeka Rescue Mission

Building Healthier Churches
The world needs new and healthier churches. Churches that have sound theology but are living out that theology. Because if your activity doesn’t match your theology then it is hypocrisy. We will help existing churches get healthier through coaching as well as partner with church plants to start fresh with healthy leadership. When churches in our city win the Kingdom wins!
