Empowering Churches and Community Programs to Strengthen Families and Inspire Hope
If your church or ministry is passionate about serving children, families, and communities, the Pincus Family Foundation Grant is a powerful opportunity to expand your impact. This foundation supports creative, educational, and wellness-based programs that help families thrive, and it’s open to 501(c)(3) nonprofits across the U.S., including faith-based organizations and churches.
💡 What This Grant Funds
The Pincus Family Foundation focuses on four key areas:
- Creative & Performing Arts – Programs that use art, music, drama, or dance to enrich children’s lives. 
- Education – Tutoring, literacy initiatives, after-school enrichment, and early learning programs. 
- Health & Wellness – Mental health support, fitness and nutrition programs, and family wellness education. 
- Play & Recreation – Playgrounds, youth sports, summer camps, and community recreation spaces. 
Award amounts vary widely; from $1,000 to over $2 million, with most past awards ranging $10,000–$50,000, depending on project scope and community impact.
🏫 Examples for Churches & Ministries
Churches and faith-based organizations can leverage this grant to:
- Launch a Creative Arts Camp for children, combining music, drama, and worship with life skills and mentorship. 
- Start a Family Resource Center offering parenting classes, tutoring, and after-school support in church facilities. 
- Expand a Health & Wellness Ministry, hosting fitness sessions, mental health workshops, or support groups for parents and teens. 
- Build or refurbish a Community Playground that doubles as a safe outreach space for neighborhood families. 
- Host Youth Recreation Nights or Sports Leagues to keep teens engaged, connected, and active. 
Because the foundation accepts Letters of Inquiry (LOIs) year-round, ministries can apply as soon as their program ideas are ready, without waiting for a specific annual deadline.
