The Kingdom Project is a comprehensive development plan set out to prepare the national infrastructure of the Bahá'ís of the United States in order to welcome new believers into the Bahá'í Faith and to make available Baha'i books through retail bookstores.

It is our National Spiritual Assembly’s plan to strengthen the infrastructure and prepare the American Bahá’í Community for the dramatic growth that we are told is fast approaching. In an atmosphere charged with excitement and joy, the National Spiritual Assembly launched the first Comprehensive Development Plan for the American Bahá’í community at the 91st National Convention in April 2000.

The original financial goal of the Project was set at $60 million. In March of 2002 the National Spiritual Assembly reduced the scope of the Kingdom Project to $36 million in order to free the friends to place greater emphasis on the needs of the Bahá’í World Center Endowment Fund. Because of this reduction, some of the Project's initiatives have been postponed.  The Kingdom Project remains a vibrant and essential part of Bahá’í life and its remaining initiatives are essential for the development of our Bahá’í Community.

Initiatives include:

• The completion of the restoration work on the Mother Temple of the West, including a new Visitors Center.
• The launch of “Bahá’í Publishing” which is making Bahá’í books available in the trade market .
• The Establishment of a Temple Endowment Fund
• The renovation and improvement of Bahá'í Schools (Completed in 2002)
