Faith-based public-benefit programs

Make service access, stewardship, and program boundaries visible

Faith-based organizations can be trusted local partners. Competitive packages clearly define the funded public-benefit activity, eligibility, access, accounting, staffing, and evidence.

Readiness priorities

What the package must make clear

Define the funded activity, eligible participants, service hours, and access requirements.

Separate program costs, records, staff time, space, and decision authority when required.

Document nondiscrimination, safeguarding, privacy, and participant-choice controls applicable to the award.

Align governance, financial stewardship, partnerships, outcomes, and sustainability.

Confirm each funder's rules

CFGS organizes program and application materials, but the funder's current requirements and qualified legal, tax, or compliance guidance control questions about eligibility and permitted activity.
