ECS Special Grants

Episcopal Community Services designates 10% of its annual pledge income for grants to support parish and/or deanery community outreach projects. The guiding principle for this initiative is Matthew 25:35-36. These one-time grants may be used to support both ongoing outreach projects and the start-up of new projects. There is no minimum size of a grant. Grants are awarded on a rolling basis throughout the year.
