How It All Began
Back in 2016 Tammy and Jason felt a calling to do some type of work for the Lord. They didn’t know where the calling would take them, they just knew there had to be more to life. They spent a lot of time discussing their purpose and their whole family’s purpose for that matter and then it hit them. “What if we start a charity that involves our children and our family?” Without exaggeration, in less than 2 minutes, the Lord gave them the name of their Christian non-profit charity and P.U.R.P.O.S.E. was born; People Uniting Resources and Products On Spiritual Endeavors.
Tammy Newman
Tammy is a Christian, military wife and a mom to 2 amazing kiddos. She was born in the great state of Texas to nurturing parents who instilled the importance of faith, family and love. Being part of a military family has given her a different perspective on the term "bloom where you are planted". As a result of the sacrifices her husband has made while serving in the Army, and all the moves they have made, they've been blessed to meet some amazing friends, several of which now serve on the P.U.R.P.O.S.E. board. Tammy has an entrepreneurial spirit and passion to help others and plans to use her past experience to help P.U.R.P.O.S.E. help people around the world.
Jason Newman
Jason was born just outside Detroit Michigan to very loving and supportive Christian parents. Unfortunately, like most prodigal children, he wandered away. Eventually however, God graciously and undeservedly brought him back home; through a study of apologetics, and a heart for those less fortunate, Jason eventually found his spot in our Father’s Kingdom. Jason prioritizes his life, and defines himself as a Christian, husband, father, son…and somewhere down the list are stuff like Army officer, physician assistant, and serial dieter. Jason has a passion for helping others, and together with his lovely wife Tammy, believe PURPOSE can be utilized by the Lord to do just that. He believes that for everything PURPOSE can do for others’, it can also help focus and guide his family. One Sunday a week isn’t enough to keep most Christians on the straight and narrow, especially children. If we can keep our kid’s attention outside themselves, and actively engaged in loving others, perhaps that will be enough to keep them forever in the fold. PURPOSE is a family affair; together with likeminded believers, we will enthusiastically, and unapologetically, witness for Christ until his return–Maranatha!
