The Ministry Partnership FUnd
At The Bridge Church, we are committed to making much of Jesus by making disciples who know, live, and advance the Gospel. The Ministry Partnership Fund exists to support ministry partners who share this vision. Funded by a portion of our annual giving, the Fund allows us to steward our time, treasure, and talents toward Gospel work with lasting, real-world impact.
Funding Overview
Grants of up to $7,500 are available to support projects or general operations, provided the work directly advances the mission of the ministry partnership. Funding may be distributed as a one-time grant or in installments, depending on the nature and needs of the project or organization.
What We Fund
The Ministry Partnership Fund supports individuals and organizations that:
- Align with our mission to make much of Jesus by making disciples.
- Engage in a genuine ministry partnership with The Bridge Church—going beyond financial support to foster mutual encouragement, shared mission, and ongoing relationship.
- Demonstrate clear and meaningful impact, particularly among underserved or marginalized communities.
Eligibility Requirements
Applicants must meet one of the following criteria:
- Be a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit (or have a fiscal sponsor) if U.S.-based.
- Hold valid NGO certification if operating internationally.
- Be a tribally recognized entity if representing Native American communities.
