Guidelines for Grants
We look forward to exploring how we can help you build a vibrant, biblical Church to fulfill the Great Commission.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who qualifies for a grant?
We make grants to independent Baptist Churches that are seeking their first sanctuary building. This first building can be the purchase of a building or new construction. Usually, we prefer the Church would have been in existence for at least 3 years and have at least 25 members. There are guidelines used by the board to further qualify a Church. The grants are to be a help with the financial portion of the project, but we do not grant money to cover the full cost of the project. The new Church must also have their own investment in their new sanctuary. For information, please contact the board member in your region.
Why can’t I get pre-approved for a grant so when the timing is right we don’t have to wait?
The board of Jehovah-Jireh foundation believes it is important to use our available funds for current projects. We believe a pre-approval would in essence be a commitment to a project that then we would have to hold funds for that future obligation. Therefore, it is difficult to hold funds for a project that might happen in the future. Our goal is to utilize our resources for new Churches as the funds are available.
What type of construction work qualifies for a grant?
Jehovah-Jireh Foundation provides grants for the first sanctuary building. We do not provide grants for gyms, schools, or other types of facilities.
