Description
The Independent Presbyterian Church Foundation (IPCF) provides annual, emergency, and scholarship grants to organizations and individuals whose work aligns with its mission to extend the ministries of the church and support community initiatives. The annual grants cycle is the primary funding opportunity for organizations, with separate deadlines for new and returning applicants. The foundation also offers emergency grants for organizations facing urgent needs and scholarship grants for students attending Protestant theological seminaries or Presbyterian-affiliated colleges. Funding is made possible through the earnings of dedicated endowments such as the Orlean and Ralph W. Beeson Fund and the Felix C. Yarboro Community Ministries Fund.
