Youth Project Grant Program

Youth Ministry Project Grants are used to support local youth-led projects that offer Unitarian Universalist high school-aged youth opportunities to grow in faith, deepen in spirit, develop skills, experience leadership and engage in service and justice work. Grants will be awarded to youth who have paired with an adult advisor in a sponsoring congregation, district, or Unitarian Universalist organization and whose project is geared toward developing dynamic, multigenerational communities grounded in congregational life.

For grant program descriptions, evaluation criteria and instructions, see the application form (PDF).

Grant applications received by the following deadlines will be given priority. Grant applications received after the deadline will still be reviewed for the available funding.
