Can a faith-based organization get a grant?
Yes, but support to faith-based organizations is limited. A faith-based organization may choose to create a separate, community-based non-profit organization not associated with the parent faith-based organization. This non-profit organization must maintain separate financial records and a separate board of directors to avoid a conflict of interest. Non faith-based organizations, serving the community at large, have access to a broader number and variety of funding sources. A to Z Grantwriting Seminar students will receive a complete list of faith-based funders in their region. Here are two resources I hope will be helpful in finding support for your faith-based programs..
