These grants cover funding for new churches in: South Phoenix; Boise, Idaho; Dedham, Massachusetts;Carlsbad, California; Bosnia; the Philippines; Tijuana, Mexico. We are also supporting the Family of God Church in Rocky Point in training new Spanish speaking pastors. We continue to support Mission and Outreach projects at the Tonto Rim Christian Camp, Rocky Point Medical Clinic, and The Young Life Developing Global Leaders program. This year we have also added support for two former First Baptist members who are answering God’s call to minister to the people of Indonesia, and support for a local Young Life High School ministry.

June, 2014-
The application procedure has been changed. All applications will now be processed using the Arizona Community Foundation standard procedure for grants. This will require that you register your organization profile with ACF. This is all explained at their web site www.azfoundation.org/grants. You will find the access point for on line applications at the bottom of our GRANTS page.

June 2013- The First Baptist Church of Phoenix Foundation became a Supporting Organization of the Arizona Community Foundation. This change was a necessary step in our maturity as a foundation as we changed our status from a public foundation. This change is largely transparent to our grantees, our grant process, and most importantly to our mission. The Arizona Community Foundation provides support and participation in over 1200 funds in the state of Arizona and provides grants that average over 35 million dollars per year. ACF provides administrative and financial support services as well as due diligence concerning proper foundation operations. Please visit their web site at azfoundation.org for more information.
