JANUARY 8, 2024: Brotherhood Mutual FoundationSM is awarding a total of $150,000 in Kingdom Advancing GrantsSM to church programs that not only help solve a problem in their community, but also connect people to Jesus.
“We’re looking for churches that are doing something innovative, creative, and unique. The program should be sustainable, with a well thought-out business plan. And it must be something that other churches can replicate,” said Kathy Bruce, director of the Brotherhood Mutual Foundation.
Apply January 8 through March 27, 2024, at www.brotherhoodmutual.com/kingdom-advancing-grant. The Granting Council will make final decisions by July 2024. The Granting Council is made up of more than a dozen pastors, administrators and executive leaders from some of the most influential churches and ministries around the country.
Over the past two years, nine church programs have received grants. The average individual grant ranges from $20,000 to $50,000. Number of grants awarded each year will vary, based on the scope and financial need of the projects.
