Advancing GrantSM
Funds innovative Christian church programs that are transforming local communities through ministry.
Reach More Hearts
The Kingdom Advancing Grant, offered through the Brotherhood Mutual FoundationSM, supports church teams who, in their God-ordained calling, transform their community in creative and collaborative ways. The goal of the program is to support sustainable initiatives that then can be shared with and replicated by other Christian churches.
The Brotherhood Mutual Foundation awards individual grants in amounts of $15,000–$100,000 annually. The number of grants awarded each year will vary, based on the scope and financial need of the projects. In addition, each grant recipient will be paired with an experienced ministry leader who can provide guidance and assistance.
