Grants focus on global health initiatives and disaster recovery efforts, benefiting local and international communities. Funding is available annually, with potential renewals for up to three years based on project scope and funding availability. This initiative continues the Foundation's commitment to fostering growth and outreach within the Great Plains Conference.

Grants may be renewable up to three years within a five-year period contingent upon the availability of funding sources and the quality and scope of the mission work. It is not guaranteed that grants will be awarded the full amount of the request.
