Who We Are 

As a quickly growing social enterprise, LogosWorks Partners was launched to create opportunity in the next economy embodying the Christian call to seek the peace and prosperity of our community, especially for the under-resourced. We are building a team that can help us acquire and invest in for-profit businesses driving resources toward strategic areas of social impact, particularly in education and public safety.  

We work closely with our affiliated entity Logos Academy (a K-12 school) to ensure that every student has access to an excellent Christ-centered education no matter what their family’s income or background. This model has delivered results for students again and again over the past 24 years.

More recently we launched a collective impact initiative called the York County Safety Collab which engages all 17 police departments in York County plus the District Attorney. Through this initiative, we are providing equipment and training while leading public engagement to promote transparency, safety, and equity. We plan to find strategic opportunities for profit generation by leveraging a position of influence and proximity to law enforcement and the community. We are exploring opportunities to build services to train police, serve the public relations needs of departments, consult nationally on building collaboration between law enforcement and the community, and more.
