Province V Network Initiative Grants
Purpose
The primary purpose of Province V is to support collaboration and networking amongst the fourteen dioceses that compose our body. Collaborative ministry is already taking place throughout our Province, including several networks working on initiatives such as racial justice, creation care, and resort ministries.
In an effort to support and catalyze these networks, the Province V Executive Board offers grants for new and collaborative initiatives that are the result of dioceses working together for a common cause - to forward the Jesus Movement in the Midwest.
$9,500 has been designated for Network Initiatives Grants for 2020. Initiatives may apply for up to $2,000 per project.
Grants are available on a rolling basis and applications are accepted throughout the year, until funds have all been disbursed.
