Preference is given to Chattanooga area ministries and organizations.
Grants are made for one year with the possibility of annual renewal upon a thorough review of the ministry. Funding for local individuals serving in non-local ministries is reviewed annually for a maximum of four years. If an individual is serving locally and transfers out of the area, the Foundation will continue to fund them for a maximum of twelve months from date of transfer. The project or work for which funds are requested must exhibit a high probability for success, a qualified staff and responsible board of directors, financial accountability with apparent planning and goal-setting skills in place, and a true need for such funds. No grants are made to individuals for any purpose.
