About TntWare
 TntMPD started out as a personal hobby for Troy Wolbrink in 1997. He wrote it to meet his own need to stay better organized as a missionary with Campus Crusade for Christ. Now it's used by over 8,000 missionaries in 12 languages representing over 100 mission organizations! Troy continues to develop it, often in response to his own needs as he continues to use the software.
Besides TntMPD, Troy has developed two other applications which help other ministries support their staff with up-to-date donation information. One application is DonorWise, a donation processing and receipting system for small to medium size ministries. The other application is TntMPD.DataServer, a system designed to provide TntMPD users with near real-time web-based access to their donation information provided by their ministry.
Many others have contributed significantly to the project. His wife, Tammy, helps Troy better understand the needs of non-technical users. She helps him think through ways to make the software more intuitive, to the point that most missionaries can begin using the software without any training. Where the intuitiveness of TntMPD ends, Bob Mac Leod has contributed mightily by developing the online help and training curriculum. He is now the project manager for DonorWise, and with this he consults other ministries in how to provide donation information to their staff through the use of our tools. Bob has helped many missionaries become more effective in their use of TntMPD, and he has helped many ministries to be able to offer TntMPD to their staff.
Many others continue to help in other important ways. Thad Hoskins helps with the Web server hosting side of TntMPD.DataServer for most Campus Crusade for Christ national ministries (and even some non-CCC ministries). Chris Pratt has helped many national ministries in Latin America to become more effective in their use of TntMPD, often working with local leaders to install and use DonorWise and TntMPD.DataServer. Martha Conrad has trained many staff in Western Europe on the use of TntMPD. Many others not mentioned have also contributed to the project in important ways.
One of the reasons we are all so passionate about TntMPD is that we personally use it to help us develop a team of partners who surround us in prayer and financial support to make possible our full time involvement in the ministry. If you are one of our partners, we'd like to express to you a deep and sincere gratitude.
TntMPD saves the average missionary almost an entire day per month of reduced busy work. This helps them focus more on ministering to people as they are less overwhelmed by administrative details. Our goal is to free up 10,000 missionaries with an a extra day per month to make disciples of all nations! Would you like to support us in our efforts to help thousands of missionaries have an extra day every month?
