Grant Opportunity: $1 Billion Commitment For Ministries

Here-4-You Consulting: There’s a new Christian foundation on the block and they have promised to give away $1 Billion in grant funding to organizations with programs for orphans, unborn, widows, church planting, leadership development, evangelism, and discipleship!

The Covenant Values Foundation announced their inauguration coupled with a pledge to give $1 billion in financial support on March 7, 2012. Foundation trustee Carey V. Brown explains “Through this monumental pledge, which can only be made with God’s participation, we commit to making a marked difference and aim to inspire others to a lifetime of giving.” The foundation mentions, “Although we primarily fund Christian ministries, to a limited extent we do consider selected projects which improve the quality of life for Orphans, the Unborn, and Widows (James 1:27).”

The website also offers a link to begin the foundation’s grant application process. After answering the initial screening questions, if the applicant qualifies they are invited to submit a letter of inquiry to the foundation. Covenant Values Foundation has pledged as its first grants over $650,000 to be issued just this month. A $25,000 grant commitment has already been made to On Point, a youth development program that help teens abstain from risky behavior.
