Worldwide Christian Schools

Organization Description: 

Worldwide Christian Schools (WWCS) was founded in 1986 with the purpose of building Christian schools around the world in the areas they were needed most. Today, WWCS provides school development programs dedicated to the glory of God and to the service of the local community without regard for race or creed.

The WWCS ministry was launched by three businessmen from Grand Rapids, Michigan after a trip to India in which they witnessed the poor schooling conditions in rural areas. When they returned home, the three men decided to begin Worldwide Christian Schools, an organization that would focus on school construction in the developing world, beginning in India.

Today, WWCS operates a holistic educational ministry focused on operational funding for schools, teacher training, curriculum development and educator resources as well as school construction. WWCS has had school projects in 44 countries around the world, funded by donors to our ministry programs.
