Overview

First Christian Heritage Fund

Overview: Established in 2018 when First Christian Church closed its doors, this fund honors the church's legacy by continuing to serve the Rome and Floyd County community. Each year, this fund supports a local nonprofit that reflects the church's values and mission, with contributions made in the name of First Christian Church.

Geographic Scope: Rome and Floyd County, Georgia

Fund Criteria: Applicants will be reviewed during the 2026 Grant Cycle. The fund supports projects that:

  • Enrich the spiritual lives of participants

  • Support diversity and inclusiveness

  • Further social justice
  • Background: When First Christian Church closed in 2018, members saw an opportunity to continue their ministry in a lasting way. After distributing most proceeds from church building's sale to local nonprofits, they established this fund with the Community Foundation to ensure lasting impact.
