Churches and other qualifying public charities may receive donor-recommended NCF grants, subject to tax-exempt-status and values review.
You’ll need
An NCF giver recommends a grant; NCF reviews a new charity before issuing funds.
Our note: Develop a relationship with an existing NCF donor and ask the local NCF team what charity documentation is needed. Do not treat “rolling” as an open competitive application.
Watch for
NCF does not accept grant applications. A donor recommendation initiates review; a charity or grant purpose that fails eligibility or values checks is not approved.
Not confirmed: a recipient match, recipient application fee or minimum grant under this listing. Donor fund costs are not automatically charges to the recipient church.
