Domestic Hunger Grants Open May 1!
ELCA World Hunger is excited to share that the application process for Domestic Hunger Grants will open May 1, 2024. For those who are familiar with the Domestic Hunger Grants, this year’s process will be the same as last year’s but with additional time for applicants and reviewers, after receiving feedback that more time was needed. To learn more about the process and how to apply, please visit https://elca.org/domestichungergrants.
Successful applicants include an advocacy component to support their ministry and ending hunger beyond their congregational walls! LAMPa can help! Email us at LAMPa@lutheranadvocacypa.org.
Applicant Info Webinar
On May 2, 2024, at 2:00pm CDT, ELCA World Hunger will host a webinar for interested applicants and others to learn more about the process. The webinar will go over the grant application process and how to submit an LOI, and World Hunger staff will answer questions. Participants will be provided with a Zoom link once registered. The webinar will be recorded and accessible via the Domestic Hunger Grant website: https://elca.org/domestichungergrants.
