We train and partner with churches and families to successfully disciple the children of their homes and communities into fully devoted followers of Christ. Training events are conducted in 40 countries around the world including the U.S. These are facilitated through the mobilization of short-term training teams, in-country missionaries, and partnerships with local and global ministries and organizations. 0 0 565270 0 676924 KidZ at Heart International avoids the unintended consequences that result from well-intentioned international children's programs by equipping local leaders to work with the children of their own communities using the resources readily available to them. By doing this, we avoid creating dependency on western resources, we leave local leaders with skills they can continue using and reproduce in others, and we lift up those most likely to impact children - the families and church leaders who love them and live with them daily. The unique KidZ at Heart training plan has been used to train children's ministry workers in 40 countries, including the U.S. During 2017, KidZ at Heart recruited and equipped teams to train in El Salvador, Nepal, Haiti, South Africa, Zambia, Uganda, Moldova, Romania, Honduras, Kenya, Mexico, India, Cambodia, and Nicaragua. Close to 800 were trained during these trips and hundreds more were trained through our in country training in El Salvador, South Africa, and Uganda. Staff at KidZ at Heart were featured in several major conferences in the U.S. The KidZ Ministry Certification Program continued El Salvador, South Africa, and Uganda. Meanwhile, U.S. training conferences continued to train the typical children's ministry worker in the U.S. while still promoting the mission worldwide of KidZ at Heart through the KidZ Leadership Summits (for children's ministry leaders), KidZ Ministry Team Trainings (for the entire team) and missions-focus events focused to train short-term teams. 0 0 0 565270 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 17 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 10 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 AK AZ CA CO FL GA HI MN MS ND NH TN VA WA WI WV X Gordon West 8777785439 1831 E Hope St Mesa AZ 85203 Debby DeBernardi Board Member 5 0 X 0 0 0 Rebecca West Sr. Vice President / Board Member 20 0 X X 20254 0 0 Cathy Hoyt Secretary 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Bob Rundio Board Member 5 0 X 0 0 0 Nancy Tichy Board Member 40 0 X X 16224 0 0 Larry Tiffan Board Member 5 0 X 0 0 0 Rick Whitaker Board Chairman 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Joe DuPay Vice Chairman 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Craig Omoto Board Treasurer 5 0 X 0 0 0 Gordon West President 40 0 X X X X 99600 0 0 136078 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 513676 93500 513676 Revenue from Short-Term Trips 813110 159410 159410 0 0 0 0 0 0 159410 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 23676 19838 3838 3838 0 0 0 676924 163248 0 0 136078 115666 6804 13608 226263 153787 7317 65159 3586 3586 14249 14249 3900 3900 96 96 6369 6369 8701 7747 954 11067 11067 93500 93500 12035 12035 9819 9819 42 42 2318 2318 Short-Term Trip Expenses 119425 119425 0 0 Translation Costs 4072 4072 0 0 Licenses and Fees 3166 3166 0 0 Bank Processing Fees 8131 8131 0 0 14444 14444 677261 565270 33224 78767 93236 89722 1150 0 20056 17477 4165 21397 118607 128596 17912 28238 17912 28238 X 57456 34758 43239 65600 0 0 100695 100358 118607 128596 -337 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 433867 447997 508879 666906 673086 2730735 433867 447997 508879 666906 673086 2730735 2730735 24 10 0 0 0 34 2730769 0.99999 0.97985 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 676924 0 0 0 0 0 676924 0 0 0 676924 677261 0 0 0 0 0 677261 0 0 0 677261 X 15 93500 Fair market value 0 0 1 0 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 Gordon West (President) is married to Rebecca West (Sr. Vice President) Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The 990 is sent to all KidZ at Heart board members for review prior to filing of the 990.
