Capital Grant Opportunities
The Church Buildings for Collaborative Partnerships program is now accepting applications for a new capital grant opportunity. Any Indiana Episcopal congregation may apply for one grant, which must be matched dollar-for-dollar.
There are two grant categories based on the size of the grant request.
a) Category 1: Grant requests ranging from $20,000 to $50,000, meaning the estimated cost of the capital project(s) will total at least $40,000.
b) Category 2: Grant requests ranging from $2,500 to $19,999, meaning the estimated cost of the capital project(s) will total at least $5,000.
