Kids Rally Community Impact Grant
Inspiring Kids to Make a Real Difference for Jesus!
Do you have a heart to see children energized for service and sharing Jesus’ love in their community? The Kids Rally Community Impact Grant is designed to help churches create meaningful, high-impact events that inspire kids to put their faith into action.
This year, $23,000 has been set aside for churches across the Central California Conference to host local or regional Kids Rallies—events that celebrate children’s ministry, encourage outreach, and help kids discover how they can make a real impact for Jesus right where they live.
We encourage churches within the same area to partner together for larger, collaborative rallies, but individual churches are also welcome to apply.
Each application will be reviewed based on the size, budget, and scope of the proposed event. Funding amounts will vary accordingly.
-
Grant Range: $500 – $3,000 per event
-
Total Available Funds: $23,000 (distributed across multiple projects)
-
Application Period: January 15 – March 15, 2026
-
Notification of Awards: by April 1, 2026
-
Rallies to be held from April - November 2026
