What you need to know about grants
How do you fund a New Worshiping Community? NCDC is here to help.
The NCDC is a strategic partner, ready and willing to help you raise the funds for your new church. We offer strategic grants in the form of matching the Presbytery Mission Agency, coaching grants, assessment grants, technology grants, and health insurance grants. You can review grants offered and their deadlines below:
The NWC Seed Grant provides $10,000 to help start a 1001 community in their first year of ministry.
After the NWC’s first year, the NWC can apply for an additional $30,000 Investment Grant.
18 months after the Investment Grant, a NWC can apply for a $30,000 Growth Grant.
The Investment Grant and Growth Grant require the NWC secure a dollar for dollar match from a mid-council, congregation, or in-kind support.
All NWC leaders are eligible to apply for Health Insurance Grants worth $3,000 a year, twice renewable. The Health Insurance Grant requires a dollar for dollar match from another institution.
Grant Deadlines
If you are planning to apply for a 1001 Worshiping Grant (Seed, investment, growth, and health grants) and would like NCDC to be a strategic matching partner, submit your grant to NCDC three weeks in advance.
