Expansion momentum Eastern Star Church recently closed on purchasing the former Martin University campus for $3.5M and plans to develop a community impact center and affordable housing at the site, signaling a capacity for large-scale property partnerships and multi-use community projects.

Asset leverage The organization is actively investing in campus assets and surrounding properties, presenting an opportunity to offer facilities management, security, IT infrastructure support, and long-term campus maintenance solutions aligned with their expansion.

Funding history Significant external funding provenance includes an $8.1M Lilly Endowment grant, indicating strong donor relations and potential openness to partnerships on social impact initiatives, grants, and program funding support.

Tech footprint Adoption of modern collaboration and design tools (Squarespace, Microsoft 365, Teams, Zoom, Adobe Creative Suite) suggests receptiveness to digital transformation services, website/e-commerce enhancements, and marketing/brand technology upgrades.

Community partnerships Past collaborations with health and faith-based networks (Eskenazi Health vaccine clinics, multi-church partnerships) highlight opportunities to offer health, outreach, and event management solutions, with potential for sponsorships and co-branded programs.
