Are you ready to make a difference in your community? We’re here to walk you through each step, with the goal of making the grant process more accessible. 

GRANT REQUIREMENTS

We’re here to help you get ready.

Talk with us! We want to help you think through this process.

Please note: Grant applications are given by invitation only after a conversation with a CWC representative. Applications are not posted on this website. This is a competitive initiative. Not all congregations who apply will be selected.

Are you a congregation or nonprofit in the state of Indiana?

Grants are awarded to Christian and Jewish congregations, or a Community Development Corporation (CDC) originating from that congregation in the state of Indiana.

Who will you partner with?

Congregations must partner with community entities (non-profits, businesses, etc.) to address an issue in the community. We can help you discover a match if you do not already have one.

What issue will you address?

In collaboration, congregations and their community entities must address ONE issue in the community.

What is the grant amount?

Congregations with Community will provide a matching grant to congregations. Developing a project budget, scope, and goals for impact will be important in this process. A CWC grant committee will determine the amount.

Who will make up your team?

Congregations and community entities must develop a team of at least three to five people to provide direction for the project.
