Fall grant applications are now open via the online grants portal! Applications are easy to complete and are due Monday, August 31. Two types of grants are accepting applications:
Catholic Community Grants
- Open to parishes and missions, university Catholic Centers, ministries and nonprofits serving in the Archdiocese of Atlanta
- Grants vary in amount awarded up to $10,000 for projects or programs
- One application per organization or archdiocesan department may be submitted
Parish Enrichment Grants
- Only open to parishes and missions of the Archdiocese of Atlanta
- These grants are $1,000; twenty grants will be awarded
- Funding could be for projects, programs, ministries or enhancements; grants will not be made for capital or debt reduction campaigns
- Note for parishes: parishes can apply for both a Catholic Community Grant and Parish Enrichment grant during this application cycle, but the applications must be for different grant projects
About the Application
The online grant application opened on Saturday, August 1, and closes on Monday, August 31, at 5 p.m.
To access the application, go to cfnga.org/grants and click the ‘2026 Grants Portal and Application’ button. There is a walkthrough guide available for instructions on how to create an account and complete the application.
Additional requirements for non-Catholic organizations:
- If the organization has been awarded two consecutive grants within two years, they must wait one grant cycle before applying again (i.e. if you were awarded a grant in fall 2024 and fall 2025, you must wait until fall 2027 to apply again)
- A recommendation form (linked in the application) from a Catholic associated with your organization (such as a board member, staff member, volunteer, client, donor or local parishioner) must be provided as part of the application
