Champion Grants

The Champion Grant exists to come alongside student ministry champions with financial support for their ministry ideas.

You can apply for the Champion Grant as a diocese, church, rector, student ministry team, student minister, or as a middle/high school student. You can apply for a Champion Grant up to twice in one calendar year. Champion Grant funds are intended to supplement the financial cost of a ministry idea and cannot be used for individual compensation. For students with an idea, make sure you’ve shared your ministry idea with a church leader and have their support.

For those who receive the Champion Grant, we want to hear how your ministry idea worked! Everyone who receives funds will be invited to share feedback and celebrations.

Champion Grant funds are given three times a year, with application deadlines on March 1st, July 1st, and November 1st. Special consideration may be given to applications from students with a new ministry idea.
