Local Leadership & Team
Ray Misomali
Ray sees himself as a catalyst for the transformation and thriving of individuals living in underserved communities. He believes in education as an enabler to human flourishing. He also believes that the human interface with economic activity in underserved communities is a means to facilitate growth and development. To this end, Ray founded Tsogolo Ndi Lero (The Future is Now in Chichewa), a non-profit organization that is developing schools in Malawi and establishing economic activities for the families of students that are enrolled. Ray has a background in public service, non-profit management and business development. He has worked in the United States and is currently living and working in his home country, Malawi.

Initiatives
Education
Our education programs provide a strong foundation for children and young adults, including a high school, elementary school, preschool, and early learning center. We also support students beyond graduation through our college transition and vocational training program, equipping them with the skills and resources needed to succeed in higher education and beyond.
We are also deeply invested in serving the Haitian community. Our Haitian Bible School provides theological education and leadership training, equipping Haitians in the community with the knowledge and spiritual foundation to serve and uplift others.
Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship is another key pillar of our work. Our Family Business Program empowers families to achieve financial independence by equipping them with the tools and training to launch and sustain their own businesses. To date, we have empowered 121 families in the Belize City region of Belize. By investing in both economic and personal development, we are helping build a stronger, self-sufficient community for generations to come.
Restorative Community Care
Our Community Care initiatives ensure families have access to essential resources. Our daily feeding program provides sustainable, healthy food access to many vulnerable children in the community. Our community center also acts as a hub for members of the community, providing resources and support to many families in need. This includes a women’s mentorship and discipleship program, weekly church services, after-school support for students, retreats and camp outings for children and teens, and much more.
