Churches are well-known for helping with charitable works in the community. They fund and assist with programs like meals for the homeless, food banks and other community services. Most churches have volunteers to help with these programs, but sometimes the church budgets don't allow them the financial freedom to do as much as they would like. You can be awarded churches grants from various endowments and corporations, as well as some government entities. These monies can help your church flourish in all your good works.
