The Leadership Experience

Belong to something built to last.

LX Membership is one clear way to belong — an ongoing, year-over-year commitment to a community of Christian leaders living with purpose, courage, and generosity. Members at each level receive all included benefits at that level.

The membership year runs July – June · The Leadership Experience is a registered 501(c)(3)
Membership · Belong Now

One ladder to belong, at four levels.

Everything at a level is included, and each level carries everything below it. Fund your membership personally as a charitable donation, or through a business as a qualified sponsorship.

The goal is simple — everyone does something. Give at one of the levels below, or any amount that fits your season; even about $25 a month keeps you connected and part of the community. If $2,400 isn't possible right now, let us know and give what you can — just do something, too.

✳

Membership is a donation — not dues.

LX Membership is a charitable gift to The Leadership Experience, a registered 501(c)(3) organization. It is not a fee, dues, or payment for goods or services — it is support given to sustain the mission, and it is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

Where a level includes a benefit with fair-market value (such as an event ticket), the deductible portion may be reduced by that value. Federal Tax ID #84-2248525. Consult your tax advisor for your situation.

How it unlocks

Give any amount and you belong right away — community, Slack, gatherings, and eligibility are yours from day one. Each level's benefits — included ticket(s), merch discount, and acknowledgment — unlock once your giving for the year reaches that level and is recorded. Give it all at once, or in installments and pre-pay anytime to reach your level sooner.

Sep1

Reach your level by September 1.

One deadline a year. Give to your level by September 1 and your included ticket(s) and member discounts are locked for the next calendar year's events — the April LX event and the October Weekender. Give all at once to unlock early, or pre-pay your installments; after September 1, included tickets are subject to availability.

Launch season (2027): events are still registered and paid for individually this year. The membership-included model begins in 2028 — give to your level by September 1, 2027 to lock the April 2028 LX event and the October 2028 Weekender.

Sponsorship · Partner on a Gathering

Sponsorship moving forward.

Sponsorship is not membership — it supports a specific gathering, over and above belonging. A few examples are below to give you an idea of where sponsorship fits. These aren't the only options — we may have others, and we're glad to shape something that suits you.

How it works: We're not selling impressions or marketing reach. Sponsorship is access to a trusted room, proximity to the right people, and association with a high-integrity community — recognition offered in gratitude, with a possible speaker introduction.
Example opportunities
Evening of Generosity

Give Together

$5K – $15K

Our evening of generosity — a gathering built around the conviction that when we give together, the work outlives us. Sponsors receive prominent acknowledgment, a speaker introduction, and relational access for a small group of guests.

Industry Gathering

Finance Summit

$7.5K – $25K

A focused summit convening leaders in finance and investing around purpose-driven capital. Lead and supporting sponsors receive panel or speaker introductions, prominent acknowledgment, attendee seats, and potential breakout access.

Couples Gathering

The Weekender

$5K floor

Support for our signature couples gathering, over and above membership. Recognition for the weekend with a possible speaker introduction — offered as a way to strengthen the gatherings that form our community.

Let's explore a sponsorship that fits.
