Each year the Episcopal Church of St Thomas the Apostle awards Outreach Grants to agencies in our area that address community needs with a focus on homelessness, hunger, health and health-care challenges (both physical and mental), social justice and education. This year we anticipate awarding approximately $5,000, divided among one to three organizations.
Our priority is funding specific projects that would not be accomplished without our assistance. Unfortunately, we do not provide unrestricted operating funds or funding for ongoing projects and needs. In addition, organizations must be headquartered and operate in Dallas County and must be a tax-exempt organization under IRS code 501(c)(3).
The process for requesting fund is simple. All we ask is for you to send a written (hard copy) letter requesting a specific amount and a one to two paragraph explanation of a specific project or use for the funding. You may also include two additional singled-sided (or one double-sided) page(s) of information about your organization. This may be a newsletter, a brochure, a report, etc. Please include a copy of your 501(c)(3) letter of determination. We reserve the right to request and review more detailed information prior to making a final decision.
Proposals should be submitted to:
Outreach Committee
The Episcopal Church of St. Thomas the Apostle
6525 Inwood Road
Dallas, Texas 75209
Requests must be received no later than 5:00pm on Friday, August 31, 2018.
Organizations will be notified of grant awards in November 2018. Funds will be distributed in December 2018.
Thank you for the important work you are doing in our community. We look forward to hearing how we may assist you in your mission.
Sincerely,
Andrew C. Rohrbacher
Outreach Chair
