Entrenuity's story includes faithful supporters like Mark and Jennifer Soderquist.

Entrenuity wants to specifically acknowledge and thank Mark & Jennifer Soderquist for their friendship and individual financial support, along with introducing Entrenuity to their family foundation in 1999. Mark & Jennifer have faithfully served and lived in the North Lawndale Community for over 30 years. Mark is an Associate Pastor at Westlawn Gospel Chapel, a 67-year old African-American church. Mark & Jennifer have supported the work of Entrenuity since our launch in 1999 and have been the model of introductions, transference of relationships and always being the first to support Entrenuity’s projects – whether a success or a failure. Mark & Jennifer never seek attention and often go without recognition in the North Lawndale Community, while other organizations and ministries get much of the attention in the evangelical context. I often tell Mark & Jennifer that their model and support of Entrenuity should be THE MODEL for other donors seeking to bring dignity and honor to those they serve with and support. Without the support of Mark & Jennifer independently, along with their family foundation, Entrenuity would not be where it is today!
