Partner with purpose

Help possibility become a pathway.

Meaningful change rarely comes from one program or one organization. It grows when generous people, trusted institutions, useful expertise, and real opportunity meet around a shared purpose.

Find your place

Different partners. One shared horizon.

Each partnership begins differently. The clearest starting point is to name what you can bring and what kind of next-generation opportunity you hope to help create.

Individuals

Stand behind a young person’s next step.

Give with conviction, introduce the work to others, or offer the kind of encouragement that helps an emerging story move forward.

Start a giving conversation

Churches

Turn global mission connection into practical care.

Champion missionary kids through prayer, communication, program sponsorship, volunteer participation, and long-term relationship.

Explore church partnership

Mentors & volunteers

Bring experience close enough to be useful.

Offer creative, educational, media, ministry, administrative, or professional expertise in a trustworthy and developmentally appropriate way.

Offer your time or expertise

Foundations & companies

Invest in a pathway with visible purpose.

Support awards, mentoring, education, exhibitions, storytelling, and the infrastructure needed to move from annual programs toward year-round impact.

Discuss institutional partnership

Partnership in practice

We do this together.

Partnership is already part of the organization’s story—not simply an aspiration for the future.

The 2026 MK Art Competition was organized by 153 The Story with support from GAON Gallery and collaboration with GBC Korean Gospel Broadcasting. Educational support also connected participants with college and art-major counseling opportunities.

Future partnerships will be described publicly as their roles and commitments are confirmed.

Give with clarity

Help a story be discovered—and developed.

Your support can help a young person be seen, encouraged, equipped, and connected to a new opportunity. We are building the giving process carefully; until online processing is activated, every giving inquiry begins directly with our team.

One-time gift

Respond to an immediate program need or a timely opportunity.

Monthly support

Build steady capacity for careful, year-round development.

Program sponsorship

Help underwrite awards, mentoring, education, exhibition, or storytelling.

Institutional giving

Explore foundation, corporate, donor-advised fund, or matching-gift possibilities.

What support can make possible

Arts and creative programs
Mentoring and education
Scholarships and awards
Exhibitions and performances
Media and storytelling projects
Next-generation leadership opportunities

A good first conversation

Start with purpose, not a package.

We do not assume every partner should participate in the same way. A useful conversation begins with your context, the people or resources you hope to bring, and the kind of opportunity you want to help create.

Our team will respond with the most appropriate next step—whether that is program information, a mentoring conversation, a church or institutional partnership discussion, volunteering, or giving.
