We believe that the best way to reach climbers is through relationships. This is why we are primarily organized by local chapters of like-minded climbers. Our Chapter Coordinators champion the building of authentic communities where climbers can be themselves. They are intentional about creating an atmosphere conducive to conversations and experiences related to climbing AND Jesus.

Why Work For Us?: 

As climbers, we are part of a distinct people group who enjoy challenging ourselves on the rocks and in the mountains, and we naturally develop strong connections with one another through shared experiences. [Matt. 28:19-20]

We believe that the good news of the gospel offers hope for all people, and it connects us to the amazing God of the universe in a personal way. [John 3:16]

The most effective way that we can share the reason for the hope we have is by intentionally developing meaningful and supportive relationships, where we honor and serve others. [1 Thess. 2:8]

Because we have experienced the unconditional love of Christ, we are compelled to share it. [2 Cor. 5:14]

Pact, an adoption alliance

Overview
Headquarters: 
Emeryville, CA
Website:

Annual Budget : 
$1-5M
Size: 
1-10 employees
Founded: 
1991
About Us
Areas of Focus: 
Education
Youth / Children
Mission: 

Pact is a non-profit organization whose mission is to serve adopted children of color. In every case, the child is always our primary client. In order to best serve children's needs, we provide not only adoptive placement but lifelong education, support, and community for adoptees and their families on issues of adoption and race. Our goal is for every child to feel wanted honored and loved, a cherished member of a strong family with proud connections to the rich cultural heritage that is his or her birthright.

Programs: 

Education and support are as essential as food, water, and love to the long-term health and success of all adopted people and their families. Adoption and race are complicated in a world where most people are raised by the parents that gave birth to them, and where people of color still struggle for equity and justice. At Pact, we know we must speak honestly and openly about the realities of racism, and the challenges that children and youth of color face in our not-so-colorblind society. We know that when we talk about the complex truths of adoption with honesty and courage, we create opportunities for families to become closer and stronger, and for children to feel more comfortable in their full identity – which always includes at least two families.

 

We do this through webinars, conferences, 2 annual camps and multiple support groups.
