In-kind
Help build the schoolhouse.
Some men carry this work with a monthly gift. Others can help pour the slab, erect the steel, install the systems or equip the rooms. We invite your business to become part of the same brotherhood.
King Defense is seeking trade and supply partners willing to donate a scope of work, deeply discount materials or equipment, or supply at cost. Tell us what your company can offer and begin a conversation with the ministry.
The concept is a 6,000-square-foot steel building with front and back porches, a gym, one simulator bay, baths and offices, and a meeting area with a kitchen. The parking plan calls for at least 100 oversized spaces. Final quantities and specifications must be set with qualified professionals.
We are asking for partnership, not a speculative order. A Hays County contractor and an insurance agent must be involved before fundraising commitments and final scope are represented as ready. No HVAC tonnage, concrete yardage, electrical service size or guaranteed installation date is assigned here.

How builders would be honored
We intend to honor participating builders through a builder's wall, a yearly report, an invitation to the men's breakfast and prayer by name. Any public recognition will be agreed with the business; no company logo or endorsement appears without permission.
We will provide a written acknowledgment describing accepted in-kind gifts, with details reviewed for the actual gift and legal requirements. A company's estimated value is for discussion, not KD's certification of fair market value or a promise of a tax deduction. 501(c)(3) status pending; tax-deductibility to be confirmed.
Everyone brings something. The builder who pours the slab, the partner who helps keep the lights on and the man who comes for coffee belong at the same table.
