We are committed to supporting organizations in our community that are making an impact in the lives of vulnerable and at risk groups. Our selection committee awards a new grant each month. Grant amounts range from $500 to $3,000. Recipients must be willing to come to a Sunday worship service to participate in a short interview with our pastor. Those interviews are designed to help church members find out about (and perhaps get involved with) their organization.
Please click the link below to read more about the Guiding Principles that the selection committee uses in evaluating recipients. Community organizations are warmly encouraged to apply at any time! Our Mission Committee meets quarterly to review grant applications. While the application process is always open, the Quarters will be divided into Jan 1-March 15, March 16- June 15, June 16-Sept 15, Sept 16-Dec 15.
