Episcopal Parish Grants
Small grants are offered (up to $1,000) to Minnesota Episcopal congregations supporting their efforts in building potential for vulnerable children.
SAF will support projects that help congregations improve the lives of children, youth and their families. This could be a program run by the congregation on behalf of its own children, should they fall into that category, or a program doing outreach to families in need. The funds could also support advocacy efforts within the congregation on behalf of vulnerable children.
The next deadline to submit a proposal is April 1, 2011. Click here for grant guidelines.
