Our Church to Church Grant Priorities
Does your church already have an Anglican overseas partner?
ARDF’s mission is to resource the local church to meet the needs in its community, and we know that many churches and dioceses in the Anglican Church of North America (ACNA) already have overseas Anglican partners and connections. Our Church to Church matching grants are designed to foster and enhance the impact of those existing partnerships! All ACNA churches and dioceses located in the US with an an Anglican church partner who is meeting needs in their community are eligible to apply for this grant. Your church will raise funds, and ARDF will match those funds to support the vision of your overseas Anglican partner.
The grant funds will be used to support a community development project in the overseas location. Potential project focuses include, but are not limited to: access to clean water, climate resilience, agriculture, education, healthcare, and economic empowerment.
