Dear Colleagues – some of you have asked about the possibility of grant funding to assist with technology needs. Below you’ll find a link to the page that describes micro-grants that are currently available from the national setting of the UCC. These are for churches directly impacted by Covid-19. For example, if you want to upgrade a zoom account so you can have better on-line worship, or purchase tech equipment to create/upgrade an on-line presence, etc. These grants have also been used for food bank ministry (which has increased) and for other direct services such as funeral costs for those lost to Covid.
Think about how Covid has affected your ministry and what would be most helpful in response. Then apply for a grant! Let me know if you have questions.
Peace,
Carrie
