Our funding may not cover all costs associated with running a program; in fact, a handful of grant packages are high-investment meaning your church will need to dedicate significant time, talent, and/or financial resources to successfully execute the program. These packages are designated by an asterisk (*).
Our desire is that you will continue this program for years to come, that lives will be transformed within your community, and God will be glorified.
