For Seed Grants, the website says the award may cover up to 75% of eligible project expenses, with a maximum of $10,000 per request. The local church and conference must together provide at least 25% of the project budget, and both must be represented in the financial commitments. Eligible costs are capital purchases and certain renovation supplies; utilities, building purchases, salaries, rent, permits, and labor are excluded. Eligible programs may apply again after three full calendar years. Applicants are directed to work with their local Conference ACS Director, secure funding commitments, and include endorsements from the Conference ACS Director and a conference administrator. Successful applicants must submit a follow-up report within six months.

For Disaster Response Grants, the website says only conferences and unions may apply. Proposals must be received and approved before implementation, and only one application is accepted per event. Listed ineligible costs include payments to other disaster-response organizations, disaster survivors, church-property repairs, and volunteer services.
