Mini-Grants help faith communities do mission.

Over the years, generous people have given bequests, trusts, and other planned gifts to the Foundation. Now we’re giving back. The Foundation exists to support the long-term financial health of faith communities, and we know that sometimes what these communities need most is a short-term influx of cash. Our mini-grants are designed to support special projects. What are you working on?
