Ideal Applicant
A Christian nonprofit or ministry—often local to Indiana or serving Fort Wayne—seeking program or general operating support and able to apply through the Kingdom Advancing Grant process.
Good Fit
- • Explicitly Christian mission or ministry orientation.
- • Programs serving Fort Wayne/Indiana communities or demonstrable local impact.
- • Requests for program support or general operating funds in typical ranges ($0–$50K common, with occasional larger awards).
- • Willingness to apply via the foundation's online Kingdom Advancing Grant portal and follow published guidelines.
Geography
Grants appeared in 13 states, but 93% of grant dollars in 2023 were directed to Indiana, indicating a predominant in-state focus despite limited out-of-state activity.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 126 distinct recipients with many small-to-mid sized awards and a mix of returning and new grantees, so the observed recipient set is broad even though some dollars concentrate in a few large awards.
New Applicants
There is a public application route (Kingdom Advancing Grant portal and published guidelines) and 48 new recipients were funded in 2023 (about 38%), so unfamiliar but eligible organizations appear able to gain entry.
