To strengthen community ties between their audiences, and activate social media influence, crowdfunding site FaithLauncher and UnKonventional Media have officially teamed up.
Allysen Kerr, UnKonventional Media’s Founder and Publisher of Adapt Magazine described the partnership as one that supports her vision to “create media with a purpose.” “We accomplish this goal by creating content that effectively and authentically communicates the Gospel through publications, graphic design, and other media.”
UnKonventional Media is a faith-based media company that produces Adapt Magazine. Their graphic design shop provides graphics and 
media content development services to clients throughout the U.S. Together, UnKonventional Media and FaithLauncher are strategically positioned to support the magazines’ college student readership as well as business clients who are focused on getting their message out.
“FaithLauncher is a great organization!” Kerr stated. “It’s amazing when the Lord orders your steps and brings an exceptional opportunity to have a long lasting affect on our communities.” FaithLauncher’s mission is to assist anyone with a faith inspired idea to launch a crowdfunding campaign and raise money quickly and securely. Unlike other crowdfunding sites, FaithLauncher empowers project owners to engage supporters, build a community, and offers them valuable coaching and tools throughout the process.
Overturning barriers to start a faith-based enterprise is a journey Kerr strongly relates to. She launched Adapt Magazine in college and continues to grow it in tandem with her graphic design business. As a young student, she pushed through fears doubts and insecurities, but cheerfully affirms that God was very gracious with her and showed her it was going to take off no matter what. “I feel like I had no choice! UnKonventional Media started last year, [2012].” Kerr’s desire to help college students succeed both in their faith and their careers stems from 
a deep personal compassion and calling. As a flourishing Christian businesswoman, she understands the importance of providing effective content and building strong community resources to get them there.
“FaithLauncher and UnKonventional Media are not only compatible, our values match perfectly when it comes to helping people achieve great things because they want to glorify God,” FaithLauncher Founder and CEO, Fernando Chavez noted. UnKonventional Media plans to provide preferred pricing for creative services to FaithLauncher’s partners. “We also would like to offer special incentives to those individuals who subscribe to Adapt Magazine through FaithLauncher,” Kerr added.
