Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

  • Global evangelism and church planting through US-based mission agencies
  • Christian leadership and theological training abroad, especially Global South
  • Generosity and biblical stewardship movements for donors and churches
  • Christian media, broadcast, and Scripture translation for closed regions
  • Faith-framed poverty alleviation, microenterprise, and anti-trafficking business
  • Campus and youth ministry in the US and internationally

Typical grant

Half the grants land between $32,500 and $200,000, with a median of $80,000, so a first ask in the $75,000 to $200,000 band reads as normal here. The very large checks go to institutional anchors and the generosity infrastructure: Oral Roberts University at $14.6 million, Ezra Institute at $2.7 million, National Christian Foundation at $2.7 million, Generous Giving at $2.1 million. With 367 grants to 367 distinct recipients across three years, the file shows breadth rather than repeat annual renewals to the same name, though related entities appear more than once.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

  • PROMOTION OF CHRISTIAN FAITH
  • POVERTY ALLEVIATION
  • GLOBAL
  • EDUCATION
  • HEALTH

Positioning adjacent work

  • Tie your work to leadership training or theological education abroad; that theme funds at $150,000 to $500,000.
  • Frame poverty, health, or arts work explicitly in Christian faith terms; every non-faith category here still funds ministries.
  • Ask $80,000 to $200,000 for a first grant unless you are an institution of ORU's scale.
  • Name the region: Middle East, Iran, Ukraine, India, Africa, and Southeast Asia all appear repeatedly.

Worth knowing: Every single grant in the file carries the GLOBAL tag, so purely domestic work is a poor fit even though recipients cluster in Texas, California, Colorado Springs, Atlanta, and Florida. Money moves heavily through the Christian donor-advised ecosystem, including National Christian Foundation, The Signatry, and a Clearwater-based recipient sharing the foundation's own city, which signals relationship-driven giving rather than cold inquiry.

Top recipients

Repeat recipients are the strongest signal of whether a funder has an open door or quietly re-funds the same organizations.
