Applications for Catholic Charities Diocese of Charlotte’s 2023 Local CCHD grants are now available.
With financial support from 25 percent of the funds raised in the November Catholic Campaign for Human Development Collection, Catholic Charities annually offers these local grants of up to $5,000 to fund non-profit projects in the diocese that are fighting poverty at the grassroots level.
Funded grant projects must target the root causes of poverty and related social concerns.
All grant applicants and projects are reviewed for their conformity to Catholic social doctrine and require a local parish endorsement. Grant guidelines and applications are available to download at www.ccdoc.org/cchdcrs.
The deadline for sending in completed 2023 Local CCHD Grant Applications, via email, is Friday, March 3.
