About Us

How did this begin?

Since January 2009, 1 for 50 has been in a global listening process, receiving input from leaders in over 80 nations through surveys, interviews, focus groups, consultations and networking. This led to the development of a strategic plan and several pilot vision and training events in spring of 2010.

Who are we?

1 for 50 is owned by all those in the Body of Christ committed to equipping believers to reach and disciple children for Christ at local levels all around the world.  We are:

  • Local pastors and children’s leaders
  • Mission and children’s ministry organizations
  • Denomination and church groups
  • Christian NGOs, social development and crisis ministries
  • Educational institutions
  • And more!
