Vivian's career in the charitable arena included, AIDS, reproductive healthcare, teen pregnancy, youth-at-risk, women’s issues and women in philanthropy, domestic violence, child abuse, political advocacy, micro-economics, and welfare-to-work. Her passion for humanity inspired her to create a charitable television talk show to encourage 1 million charitable acts. The idea grew from a seed that was planted when a stranger she met in a mall 8 years earlier paid for her to finish college. She hosted and executive produced the TV show on CBS. Today, her main focus is ministry in the marketplace.

Vivian has received many distinguished awards and recognitions for community service and leadership, including being nominated “Outstanding Business Woman of the Year”. She continues a legacy of service by partnering with the National African American Tobacco Education Network to alter tobacco addiction in communities of faith; and the San Diego Tobacco Coalition and the International Network for Women Against Tobacco as a faith-based cessation expert. Vivian attends Ambassador Family Church in Oceanside, California.

Our Charitable Focus – The MIC Project – Malindi, Kenya (AFRICA)
EVERYDAY 15,000 PEOPLE IN AFRICA DIE BECAUSE OF A TREATABLE DISEASE.
The Malindi Integrated Community (MIC) Project in the Mkondo wa Jogoo Village of the Coastal Region of Kenya, AFRICA will directly address this human tragedy by the alleviating spiritual depravation, poverty and suffering among vulnerable peoples, especially women and child-headed households. The MIC Project’s primary objective is to build a Worship & Prayer Center that serves as the principal facility and hub for the following ministry objectives:

a) Improve access to clean water and sanitation facilities.
b) Provide medical, maternal and child health services.
c) Offer basic literacy to women and children, particularly Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC).
d) Co-create income generating opportunities through micro-enterprise development and training.

The MIC Project will partner with:
1) Purpose-driven people who wish to make a difference using their time, talent and treasurers.
2) Shepherds of small religious institutions that do not have a Missions Program.
3) Social entrepreneurs and faith-friendly businesses who will commit to a social responsibility program.

The MIC Project Founder is Vivian Johnson who along side her husband Fredric D. Johnson are the Servant Ambassadors. For more information, to get involved, or make a contribution contact: Vivian Johnson at 760-494-7352 or via email at Vivian@theservant.tv or visit our website at www.theservant.tv.

Assistance from the WBCC
In 2007 The Servant created its first marketplace product to sell the “Heaven Sent” Addiction Testimony & Deliverance CD. This required a full-scale product plan for potential Lenders as well as a very detailed industry analysis to appropriately price the product. The WBCC staff, under the leadership of Michelle Butler, generously gave of their time, expertise and professional input to help prepare The Servant to launch the “Heaven Sent” CD at the National Tobacco Conference for the USA.

Without the WBCC we would not have been equipped to debut the “Heaven Sent” CD on a national platform. Their assistance made receiving the 2007 WBCC Small Business Recognition Award that much sweeter. Thank you WBCC we couldn’t have done it without you!
