The Episcopal Charities Fund provides essential financial assistance for parish-based outreach and special needs ministries. Through a competitive grant program, we extend our support to every church within the Diocese of Southwest Florida, encouraging transformative acts of compassion.
We understand that true change often starts within our own communities. The Episcopal Charities Fund serves as a catalyst, providing the financial resources necessary to bring powerful outreach initiatives to life. From addressing immediate needs to fostering long-term solutions, we empower parishes to make a meaningful difference where it matters most.
Our grant program is open to every church within the Diocese of Southwest Florida. We believe that compassion knows no boundaries, and every congregation has the potential to inspire change. Whether you’re a small parish or a larger community, your ideas and initiatives are welcomed and valued.
The Episcopal Charities Fund grants are funded from several sources:
Grants are awarded annually by Diocesan Council following recommendations made by the Council on Deacons. The Council announces the awards at the Annual Diocesan Convention.
