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

Local churches and church plants, the single largest category by count
Christian K-12 schools, classical academies, scholarship funds
Bible translation and evangelism/missions organizations worldwide
Transfers to other donor-advised sponsors under "giving and generosity"
Youth and student ministry, leadership development, campus work
Humanitarian aid, orphan care, disaster relief through Christian agencies

Typical grant

The median grant is $22,500 and the middle half falls between $10,050 and $60,000, so the overwhelming majority of the 61,181 grants are small donor-directed gifts. The eight-figure checks go to a handful of national ministries (Samaritan's Purse, Young Life, Cru, Focus on the Family), a few large capital projects (Jackson Hole Classical Academy, Museum of the Bible), and to peer DAF sponsors like WaterStone, Impact Foundation and Trustbridge Global. With 23,586 recipients across 61,181 grants, repeat giving year over year is the norm rather than the exception.

Their words

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

“GIVING AND GENEROSITY”
“EVANGELISM AND MISSIONS”
“BIBLE TRANSLATION”
“LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT”
“CHILDREN'S AND YOUTH MINISTRY”

Positioning adjacent work

This is a donor-advised sponsor; cultivate the individual donor, not Alpharetta staff. Grants follow donor instructions.
Frame work under an existing category label: "leadership development," "education," "spiritual development," "media and publishing."
Ask in the $10,000 to $60,000 range for a first gift from a single donor account.
Explicitly Christian mission and measurable ministry outcomes carry more weight than secular research framing.

Worth knowing: NCF is one of the largest Christian donor-advised fund sponsors in the country, not a foundation with its own program staff making discretionary awards. Money concentrates in Texas, Florida, California, Georgia and North Carolina because that is where the donors live, and a meaningful share of dollars simply moves to other DAF sponsors and supporting organizations rather than to operating charities.

Top recipients

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