If leaders lack the right skills, they lead poorly.

If they are more concerned with personal gain than serving, they exploit and harm others. This self-serving approach often leads to larger problems like corruption, poverty and war.

However, when leaders learn biblical servant leadership, they choose to serve others rather than use them. These transformed leaders become significant change agents as those around them respond to and emulate the leaders’ genuine love and concern for others. Such servant leaders have a long-term, deep impact on their communities and nations.

DAI exists to equip and empower this kind of leader.

Because of the work God is doing through DAI, leaders are better leaders,
people live better lives and whole communities are lifted up.

The generosity of donors is what makes this work possible.
We see our donors as important partners in the ministry and could not do the work without them (see our Philosophy of Giving). Together, we helped Christian leaders in nearly 80 countries develop their leadership abilities last year. By targeting the very source of change, your gifts make a significant difference.
