Alaska Synod First Fruits Grants
Picture

As an act of gratitude to God, the Alaska Synod designates a portion of our undesignated revenues -- the first fruits -- to invest in community non-profit and ministry organizations. Congregations can encourage agencies and organizations to apply, using the letter of introduction below, and the application. If you represent an organization that aligns with our core values of mission, relationship, empowerment and abundance, you are also encouraged to apply!

Grants will be awarded based on alignment with our core values, funds available and overall need. We are blessed to be a blessing!
