Transform. Economic. Welfare. 

Partner with Watermark CDC to create sustainable change through financial empowerment, job placement, career development, and supporting small business growth in under-resourced communities in Dallas.

Our hope is to see real life change and human flourishing happen through innovative and sustainable economic transformation by coming alongside our city, neighborhood by neighborhood. We want to be a part of bringing dignity and healthy independence to individuals, with the gospel of Jesus Christ at the core of our mission. In a short three years, more than 450 individuals have seen their lives changed economically while having their spiritual needs met through relational discipleship, as well. We are just getting started as we head our 4th year and beyond!


Over the past three years, here’s the impact by the numbers: 

  • 88 asset purchases totaling over $730,000 in matched funds with 100+ individuals currently participating in the accelerated savings program 
  • 109 individual job placements coupled along with 49 bi-weekly career training workshops
  • 30 South Dallas small business owners trained and equipped to take their businesses to the next level 
  • Over 160 volunteers serving in a variety of roles!


Even more, here are a few quick stories of personal life change through economic transformation and discipleship

  • Amanda - “Honor God with how I steward my money…”
  • Channing - “I've gained freedom being in this building."
  • Sean - "As cliche as this may sound, God's timing is always perfect."
  • Leroy - “It's like a brotherhood to me.”
  • Donat - “I grew up operating in what I was taught.”
  • Ernie - “I’m truly thankful for the opportunities.”
