The Program
ikan is a company founded on Christian principles and continues to remain an openly Christian company.  To that end, we have a strong desire to aid ministries the world over, specifically in the realm of video & film production. 
With the Video Ministry Program, we are now offering discounts to Christian ministries.  A large part of our product line, including teleprompters, camera support, LCD monitors, batteries and other production gear is available through this program.  As with any program of this type, the variable factors of demand and availability of product, as well as the product lifecycle, must dictate when products become available to Video Ministry end-users.  Generally, we do not make new products available to the Video Ministry discounting until the products have been in wide distribution for at least three months.  That being said, our commitment to those ministering through media remains high.
We are waiting to hear from missionaries and ministers, pastors and lay people, as to how we can help you spread God’s message through media.

The Guidelines
We ask that Ministry Leaders follow these simple guidelines for requests in order to keep things as simple and efficient as possible.

1. The request must come directly from the Ministry Leader, along with some form of identification for the organization. This initial contact can be done via an email, snail mail or a phone call. The following are acceptable forms:

• Tax ID # (valid only for ministries in the United States)
• Letter from Ministry Leader on organizational stationary, sent via USPS (valid only for ministries in the United States).
• Another form of identification which can adequately verify the legitimacy of the ministry (this could be as simple as a letter explaining your vision and needs on personal letterhead)

2. The Ministry Leader must then post their ministry needs in our online forum, Facebook page, ikan News blog or some other public, online venue after a brief discussion with Carlos about the ministry’s needs. It is necessary to mention just a few notes:

• After you use our equipment, we ask that you post projects and pictures of our products in use on our forum. 
• We'd like permission to share your story to others (through various promotional materials).

4. Once the price has been confirmed and payment arrangements have been made, the items will be shipped out from our warehouse.
