Faith-Filled Explorations: Smart Stewardship - Hidden Savings in School Operations

In today’s challenging financial landscape, ELEA schools are being called to do more with less—without sacrificing quality or mission. This practical, content-rich webinar will explore often-overlooked operational expenses such as office equipment leasing, in-house printing, and vendor contracts—while offering real-world strategies to uncover savings. Participants will walk away with actionable insights to improve stewardship, stretch budgets, and better support their staff and students.

Our presenter, Al Kietzmann, President & Founder, is a faith-driven expense reduction consultant
who helps Lutheran schools and ministries steward resources wisely.  With over 30 years of experience advising schools and nonprofits across the U.S., Copier Consulting, LLC specializes in uncovering hidden costs in copier leases, purchase agreements, service level agreements, invoices, and operational contracts.

Known for translating complex vendor jargon into plain English, Al Kietzmann equips school & church leaders to make informed, mission-aligned decisions. He is passionate about helping ELEA educators refocus time and budget on what matters most: teaching, discipling, and transforming lives through Christ.


Future webinars may include: 

  • Vendor Contracts 101: Avoiding Costly Mistakes in School Agreements
  • Technology That Works for You: Optimizing MFPs and Security in Faith-Based Schools
