THE RAFIKI FRIENDS PROGRAM

​Rafiki Friends: Standing With the Family

Each tier carries a relational Swahili name: a depth of relationship in the Kingdom family, not a price for a product. Rafiki Friends giving supports approved program work locally, across Africa, in Israel, and among the nations. Stewardship you can trust, family you belong to.

SPONSORS ARE FAMILY, NOT PATRONS.
Relational giving levels, not underwriting contracts.

100%

Every gift to Rafiki Friends goes to the work.

Because The Builder's Table carries the house (governance, technology, the giving platform, the administrative spine), one hundred percent of Rafiki Friends gifts fund program work, released through grants to our Kenya partners as each purpose is met.

​

A Rafiki Friends gift is not tied to a specific student, class, cohort, center, or line item. It is received as donor-restricted for program purposes, and it reaches the family undiminished.

THE TIERS

Find Your Place in the Family

Give once, monthly, or yearly.
Every tier can be given in the rhythm that fits your household: as a single gift, or spread across the year. Select “Stand as…” on any tier to continue to our secure giving page, where you’ll choose your amount and how often you’d like to give.
