Good Morning!

Startup/Nonprofit of the Week: FaithTech

Founded by James Kelly in 2016, FaithTech is a global tech community that seeks to bring together Christians from tech companies to work on critical problems. The organization forms communities within cities around the world, and provides a place for believers in the tech community to build meaningful relationships and hear from speakers. FaithTech also offers labs within those communities, and seeks to help their communities find mission-driven projects to work on and supports them along the way. Their projects have made an impact in all sorts of areas, including Bible distribution, tithing, suicide preventation, and more. Currently, FaithTech is in over 30 cities around the world, and has over 60 active lab teams. Learn more about FaithTech here.
