2008 Diocesan applications to the Anglican Foundation
NEW DEADLINE: JULY 31st 2008
Please note: All three 2007 Diocesan applications to the Anglican Foundation have been chosen and forwarded on to the Foundation.
Congregations wishing to apply for an Anglican Foundation Grant in 2008 must to do so by July 31st, 2008 through the Secretary of Synod. There are still two slots open for applications from this diocese. At that time, applications will be reviewed and checked for accuracy. Any application that is considered incomplete will be returned.
A bit of background … the Anglican Foundation provides funding for three grants/loans from each diocese per year. Most commonly, a congregation will apply for a grant/loan to help build or renovate churches, halls, rectories and washrooms, and to make handicapped-accessible washrooms. They also accept “program-type” of applications.
The maximum grant per congregation is $15 000. Should a particular project require additional funds, a low-interest loan can also be applied for at the same time. A maximum loan is set at $100 000. The D.E.C. is allowed to send only two of the three annual applications on to the Anglican Foundation at any one time; the D.E.C. may approve a third application in the spring, but it may not be forwarded for consideration until the fall Foundation meetings.
Please note that you send the application to the Secretary of Synod for verification and processing. The Foundation requires 17 copies of the finished document but you need only send one copy of the completed application to Stephen Kohner. When the application is complete and been approved by the DEC for forwarding on to the Foundation for their consideration the diocesan office will make the necessary copies.
