Tan (one legal name like “Iddo” or “Gatchaman”) is a Christ-centered altruist and former international 40 Under 40 nominee (Ecclesiastes 1:14) who left behind worldly success at a young age to pursue God's purpose in his generation. Along the way, the Lord opened unexpected new doors, introduced him to key individuals (Proverbs 22:29), and performed miracles in his life beyond anything he could have imagined. This amazing odyssey began with the simple Prayer of Jabez and nothing has been the same since. Through it all, he remains grounded and dedicated to serving others, recognizing that his successes are ultimately thanks to God's grace and guidance.

Some additional fun tidbits: He has two differently colored eyes (brown and blue). He does not swear or curse - an impactful decision he made in elementary school that he has upheld ever since. Recognizing the profound spiritual dimensions of financial stewardship, he has never used Netflix, instead prioritizing his resources toward worthy causes that he believes make a positive moral and spiritual impact. He has read and explored the contents of about five thousand books (though in the grand scheme of things, this is not particularly extensive, especially given his avoidance of time-consuming distractions). At age 14, he published his own variety magazine and hosted his own cable television show. As a descendant of Mayflower pioneers, he carries within him a legacy intertwined with America's history - proudly tracing his roots to two U.S. Presidents and one of the nation's most revered Founding Fathers. Finally, he becomes quite troubled if he ever accidentally forgets to capitalize references to God, and he’ll go to great lengths, even employing creative maneuvers, to turn those pesky lowercase letters into capitals.

A Partial List Of Charities, Ministries, and Organizations Currently Being Sponsored

“Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.”
