AsOne Ministries

AsOne Ministries is a U.S.-based non-profit organization dedicated to making disciples of Jesus and creating sustainable solutions in education, enterprise, health, and agriculture. Its primary focus is on addressing poverty in rural, underserved communities, particularly in Uganda. The organization emphasizes a locally-led model, where Ugandans are empowered to lead and develop their own communities.

History and Structure

Founded in 2015, AsOne Ministries operates with two key boards: the Ugandan National Board and the United States Board. Both boards work in collaboration to ensure strategic direction, financial oversight, and missional clarity.

Mission and Values

The mission of AsOne Ministries is rooted in its vision to end relational, spiritual, and economic poverty one community at a time. The organization's core values include:

• Sacrificial Leadership: Emphasizing leaders who uplift others.
• Local Ownership: Ensuring Ugandans have agency and authority over their community's development.
• Relationships: Building flourishing relationships as a foundational aspect of their work.
• Holistic Mission: Combining the proclamation and demonstration of Christ's Gospel.
• Long-Term Sustainability: Aiming to cover operating expenses with locally generated revenue.

Programs and Impact

AsOne Ministries works by establishing high-quality schools, health centers, farms, and businesses in each community. This holistic model aims to create sustainable programs for long-term impact, with a goal of covering 100% of Ugandan operating costs through local revenue.

Financials

AsOne Ministries reported total revenues of approximately $2.68 million in recent financial reports. The majority of these revenues are from cash donations, with non-cash donations and other revenue sources also contributing. Total expenses are aligned closely with these figures, indicating effective financial management and strategic use of resources.

Leadership

Andrew DeVaney serves as the chairman of the organization, while the U.S. and Ugandan boards include diverse members with experience in various fields, including government, education, and religious affairs.
