Operation Impact


Hi everyone!! For those of you who don’t know, AITO is an upcoming nonprofit organization that consists of both local and regional artists.  It is designed to impact communities through various outreach ventures.  This organization gives artists the opportunity to connect with each other and come together to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, visit the sick, and so much more.  AITO is about building relationships and impacting communities in any way possible that would be pleasing to God.  Matthew 25:35-40 discusses how when we help those in need, we are truly entertaining the likes of our Savior.

It is important for artists to be about more than singing to change lives. We must be about touching hearts and bringing people to Christ by showing them that Christians do care.  I know sometimes we can seem too dignified to step out into the community.  We expect the sinner to run to the church, but we have made it hard for them to ask us for anything because we never introduce ourselves outside of the four walls.  This is our chance to do.  We are the future and we have the power to make a difference! #OperationImpact
