Thank you for your interest in applying for a grant from the South-Central Synod of Wisconsin Endowment Fund.
The purpose of the Endowment Fund is to: “enhance God’s mission and ministry in the territory of the South-Central Synod of Wisconsin in addition to, and apart from, its yearly operating budget, with emphasis on fostering innovation that leads to creative, financially sustainable ministries.” (Grants range between $5,000 to $10,000)
All grants will be reviewed with attention paid to how they:
- Contribute to the long-term financial sustainability of the congregation or ministry through leveraging and unlocking other sources of funds.
- Create significant social good for the surrounding (non-church) community. This must be shown in qualitative and quantitative ways, through numbers/ metrics as well as stories of lives and communities changed.
