Seeds of Hope Grants are available
to congregations and diocesan for social justice ministries. The Seeds
of Hope Grants came from the diocese's Second Century "Feed My Sheep"
campaign conducted fifteen years ago. Grants of up to $2500 must
support the development of new programs or support the expansion of
social justice ministries that are already in action within
congregations of the diocese. Requests that do not meet these criteria
will not be considered. Applications and more information can be found on the website. Grant
applications are due August 1, 2012, and if approved, will be
distributed in November 2012. All grants must be used by June 30, 2013,
with a report due back to the diocese, including pictures if possible,
describing the results of the grant. If you have any questions, please contact The Rev. Canon Jeunée Cunningham, JCunningham@diosova.org, 434-603-1782.
