Description

For many years Johnathan lived a drug addicted life. He began using drugs at 13, which led him to drop out of school at 14, he was incarcerated at 15, and shot at 3 times by 16. At age 19, God radically saved him and by age 20 he was involved in children's ministry at his Church. He went on to become a teacher helping children to know they have someone who believes in them. Founder and President Dr. Jonathan Kraus, is a Rutgers University graduate. He went on to earn his Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry at Trinity Seminary. He also earned his Ph.D in Counseling from Northwestern Seminary.  Key Takeaways:Sponsoring a child isn’t only a blessing for the child but also for the donor. Forge a connection between the donor and beneficiary - let the donors know that they’re making a difference by sharing the stories of your target group. For the organization to grow, you have to let your leadership grow and sometimes, that means stepping back. Stop driving the train, let the other people drive the train. People will discover their potential if you allow them to be more involved and stop relying on you for action and direction.  “If you confuse, you lose. You can have the greatest work in a non-profit, but if you give that information like someone drinking from it from a firehose, you’re gonna blow them away. Very small snippets are ones I find most effective.” - Johnathan Kraus Reach out to Johnathan Kraus at:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/loveneverfailsinternational/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/loveneverfailsindia/Website: https://loveneverfailsindia.com Be more confident, credible & convincing to your board & supporters without feeling rejected, ineffective, or pushy.Learn to manage your mindset, lead yourself and others more effectively and have the meaningful conversations that drive your most important work. Get your free starter kit today at  www.theinfluentialnonprofit.com
