Helping Eradicate Poverty of Mind, Body and Spirit

At Jamko, we love to come alongside projects and organizations that uplift, support and educate local communities of color.

Agencies serving low income people are doing great work, but need business tools, funding and management experience to grow and prosper. I share my business marketing/sales/communications expertise to help programs better serve and uplift our communities.

We build capacity to build leaders. We build leaders to deploy servants. We deploy servants to help Eradicate Poverty of Mind, Body and Spirit.
