Grant Policy
-
We believe in fostering partnerships and collaboration among God’s workers.
We encourage grant seekers to use the monies received to introduce children and youth to Jesus Christ and his love for them through activities and innovative ways that promote their spiritual and physical well-being.
We do not fund 100% of a project, preferring to be partial granter of specific projects through direct and matching grants.
-
Direct Grant – the recipient receives the money directly from our organization.
Matching Grant – a commitment to award a specified amount of money to your organization based on the amount of private funds raised in response to our challenge.
President’s Grant – a type of direct grant that does not exceed $500.
Carole Binder VBS Grant – a type of direct grant that does not exceed $500. These funds are used to support organizations organizing (coordinating) a Vacation Bible School (VBS) for youth in their community.
