General Business Activities Christian Trades has been established as a Non-Profit Financial Education school in Hampton, Virginia. CHRISTIAN TRADES, INC. was foundered in 2009 by Mark E. Baker and in January 2012 incorporated in the state of Virginia. In addition, we received our 501 (c) (3) Non-Profit status from the Internal Revenue Service on June 29, 2013. Our traditional business model is based on the educating our students on stock options on the United States Stock Market. Our organization is committed to making the difference in the community via Community Outreach Teen ministry which is an outreach program that integrates evangelistic, Biblical principles into educational and athletic activities of youth in the intercity. The first objective of the meetings is to offer developing Life Skills to youth and teens. The second objective is to groom the teens into leaders for tomorrow through exposing them to high-level organizations like White House, Supreme Court, Library of Congress, Congressmen, FBI, CIA, Military installations, and Business organizations (i.e. Apple, Google). The revenues of our company are from our student tuitions, government and corporation grants, local donations and from our sister company Shining Light Investment Corporation. In addition to Stock options, our school is planning to expand it’s courses to teach students on Stocks, Real Estate, Futures, Forex (Foreign currency), Taxation and budgeting.
