​BIG NEWS FOR APPLICANTS!

We are in the process of implementing a new online application platform!  We expect this to be live before our September 15th deadline, so watch this space updates!  If you want to start drafting your application, please download our soon-to-be-outdated .pdf cover pages, and begin your draft in your word processing program.  You should be able to cut & paste, and we don't expect much difference in the questions asked.

Challenge Grant Awardees may use FAITIFY to fundraise

Many of our challenge grant recipients may now use FAITHIFY, Unitarian Universalism's crowdsourcing website, to fundraise for their challenge grants. Using FAITHIFY will allow you to activate your networks and connect with the larger UU community to raise these crucial challenge funds.
We want you to know that we are here to help. We've made posting a project on the site as simple as possible, and have documents and videos to help you every step of the way.

Go to faithify.org to get started. Let the faithifying begin!
