Foundation Grant Recipients 2024

Those who worship at St. Paul’s regularly are familiar with the plaques on either side of the altar - “Enter to Worship” and “Depart to Serve”. The grants of the St. Paul’s United Methodist Foundation reflect these core values and further the work of those who worship at St. Paul’s and their commitment to our community and beyond. In 2024, the Foundation awarded over $153,000 to non profit organizations whose work is widespread and serves senior citizens, children, those living in poverty, the marginalized, and international communities in Latin America.

The work of the Foundation is made possible by an endowment that helps to support the maintenance and upkeep of the St. Paul’s campus (80%), along with scholarship awards (approximately 10%) and grants to organizations (approximately 10%) in our community and beyond.
