“There, overlooking the streets of Togo, my soul began to wrestle with deeper questions:
What does it really mean to be loved by God?
What does it mean to be used by Him?“

Looking back at photos from our 2025 Spring Gala, in awe of the gift of this beautiful community. 🥹💗

Francis & Benedict is not just the name of a nonprofit—it’s the names of two deeply beloved people.

The heart behind our name reflects our desire: that every single person who touches, and is touched by, this ministry is truly and deeply known. We long to know you by name. We long to see the worlds of West Africa and our own collide—so that we may be transformed by the transformation we witness every day.

Are you longing for purpose?
Do you feel like your pursuits and investments are lacking connection?

We would love for you to join us.

More than just fabric, it’s a story. 📖

Our new African wax print collection is a testament to the beauty of slow fashion and ethical production. We’re proud to partner with artisans who pour their heart into every creation.

Shop dresses, skirts, and bags that make a difference.

Today we want to introduce the Gibson’s Girls Higher Education Fund, which aims to provide higher education for a Togolese student.

Our current recipient is Grace Avoyi. Grace (Francis and Benedict’s daughter), is currently studying pharmaceutical science in Senegal with 2 years of classes and a year of research yet to complete. Her dream is to return to Togo and serve as a pharmacist.

Would you consider partnering with us to sponsor her tuition for this semester? Our goal is to raise $5,000 to cover this spring semester. Comment “Grace” or send us a DM to learn more!

As we close the door on 2024 and look forward to 2025, we want to invite you to give towards our House of Peace, the center of all we do in Togo.

Our House of Peace includes our workshop for our sewists, child development center for their children, houses mission trip teams and education seminars, and is the hub of our impact initiatives.

Would you consider a year end gift towards our House of Peace? A link to give is in our bio.
