Raising financial Support

At Bingham we see ourselves as missionaries - the classroom, students and their families are our ministry and mission field. We also support other missionaries in their work in Ethiopia by education their children; but our primary work is to Teach Truth, Equip Generations and Change the World for God’s Glory through relationships with students and their families.  The videos to the left may explain this better. (The password is tgr81m - please don’t share these videos on websites, blogs or social media.)

Key to impacting the world for God’s Glory this is the demographic of our student body.

• 40% of our student body are mission families - they are impacting the world now. Some in overt ways like church planting, discipling of church leaders etc; others are more creative access groups, doing water engineering, veterinary work, medicine etc.

• Statistically, mission kids are more likely to go into missions - so we're already equipping the next generation of missionaries who will go to the nations, impacting the world for God’s glory themselves.

• Ethiopians - national and diaspora families who are leaders in politics, business, industry and communities in Addis and across Ethiopia - by supporting the Gospel in these groups we know that we are impacting Ethiopian society for God's glory - both now as we minister to students and families and in the future as our students mature and become the next generations of leaders in Ethiopia.

• African Union and Diplomatic families at the school are influential across the whole continent of Africa. As we walk with these groups we are supporting these influencers for God's glory. The children of these families will grow to be the next generation of leaders across Africa.

When you talk with supporters, you can tell them of the great impact your work will have for the Kingdom. Teachers at Bingham Academy are not only support staff for the “real missionaries” who are doing God’s work. Supporting others is our privilege and our joy, but our primary role is to see young people and their families who need to know Jesus come to faith.

We also have 3 official videos available for your use

• Introduction to Bingham (WEBSAFE)- a 2 minute overview of the school, our mission and vision and the work the Lord is doing here. This is websafe and can be shared freely on your social media, blogs and websites as well as being shown to any audience you come across.

The passworded videos are NOT WEBSAFE. Please maintain direct control of them yourself. They must not be shared on social media, websites or blogs or passed to others for their ownership. You may show them to anyone in your home country, but do not email them to people or share the password to this page. The password to view them is tgr81m

• Support Raising Video (NOT WEBSAFE) - a 5 minute video with a focus on the impact that teacher are having at Bingham. The call to action at the end of the video is to support teachers who are raising funds to be at Bingham

• Recruitment Video (NOT WEBSAFE) - this is the same video as 2. but the final call to action is to come and work at Bingham Academy. This might be useful if you’re trying to explain to people why you’ve chosen to move to Ethiopia to teach at Bingham.
  

It’s often useful to be able to show people a visual aid. Here are some of our favourites. You can find others on FaceBook and Instagram. We also have some fun videos which show the lighter side of Bingham. We’ll upload them as they become available. These are all safe for sharing publicly.

We have a number of informational documents which might be of help to you
