The Anglican Foundation of Canada (AFC) is inviting Anglicans across Canada to establish or expand community ministry partnerships in this year’s Request for Proposals (RFP). Having funded hundreds of community ministry projects across Canada, AFC knows what it takes to build successful partnerships in priority impact areas, such as food security, social justice, leadership and education, arts enrichment, and more. Through grant reports and testimonials, applicants are sharing with AFC their positive experiences working with a variety of partners, including other churches and faith groups, not-for-profit organizations, schools and community educators, and small businesses.
The goal of this RFP is to encourage more churches to go beyond their walls to establish or expand connections and relationships with external community partners who are aligned with their mission and outreach focus. By stimulating a partnership approach to the planning, development, and implementation of community-centred projects, AFC hopes to grow a more impactful, collaborative, and sustainable approach to outreach, building on each other’s successes and extending the circle of blessing to all in need.
