What it says it does
As a religious, educational and charitable organization, GenImpact is focused on training and teaching the next generation to become mature and ardent followers of Christ. This training is led by Dr. St. Clair who has over 55 years of experience discipling the next generation. Training of the youth and their leaders is performed via Zoom on a daily basis using curriculum from the 35 books he has written on leadership and growing in faith. Having extensive experience in training youth and their leaders, Dr. St. Clair identifies potential volunteer leaders who will in turn train and disciple the next generation. Each of the leaders reports to the indigenous leader on the ground in his/her country. Those indigenous leaders send regular reports and updates on each trainee for a full accounting. Currently, he trains these leaders via Zoom throughout Kenya and Nigeria on a daily basis.

Impact evidence
Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.
Programs described in its return (1)
- $128,290 spent. As a religious, educational and charitable organization the focus has been training and teaching the next generation. Dr. St. Clair has fully identified potential volunteer leaders who now train and disciple the next generation. Each of them reports directly to his/her indigenous leader who then reports progress to Barry each week. Currently, there are over 2200 leaders trained throughout the 47 counties (equivalent to states in the US) in Kenya from north of the Rift Valley to southern Samburu. In Nigeria, there have been over 860 leaders trained from the Northen plains to the Southern capital of Abuja. Jos, Nigeria has been a primary focal point of training for the last two years due to the heavy infiltration of new tribes from the north who are displaced due to violence and persecution of Christians.
