This fund is dedicated to tackling the root causes of poverty by empowering low-income communities. It emphasizes the importance of collective strength and active participation in the decision-making process, aiming to foster the development of human and financial resources for neighborhood revitalization.
The Mission Coordination Committee Grants, specifically the Community Organizing Matching Grant, aims to encourage NCP congregations to join AIM, VOICE, or WIN. These are faith-based, grassroots organizations that focus on training neighborhood leaders to tackle local issues like public safety, housing, jobs, and services for those in need. NCP offers to match the congregation’s contribution up to $500 per congregation for first-year dues or leader training expenses in faith-based community organizing.
