Mission Statement
Our mission is to transform communities by engaging children, college-age young adults, and churches in purposeful relationships.
Description
RELATIONSHIPS GROW. LEADERS EMERGE. COMMUNITIES CHANGE.
Based on a model founded in 1998 in Dallas, Texas, Project Transformation Rio Texas launched in 2015 to address three unique challenges with one program: 1) how to meet the academic, physical, social-emotional, and spiritual needs of children from under-resourced communities, 2) how to provide meaningful ways for college-age young adults to explore ministry opportunities and develop as young principled leaders for the church and the world; and 3) how to help revitalize churches in underserved communities.
Children - College-age Young Adults - Churches. This is a win-win-win formula, but relationships are at the heart of everything we do. It is through relationships that lives are transformed.
