ELCA World Hunger’s Daily Bread Matching Grants Registration Open

Applications for ELCA World Hunger’s 2022 Daily Bread Matching Grants now open!

ELCA World Hunger's Daily Bread Matching Grants support congregations and their partners as they work toward a just world where all are fed. Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) congregations with feeding ministries are eligible to participate. Approved participants are able to invite their congregation, networks and friends to donate. To kickstart campaigns, the funds raised are matched by ELCA World Hunger with a grant of $500. 

Ministries applying for an ELCA Daily Bread Matching Grant for the first time must register by creating an account in ELCA GrantMaker to access the application. If your organization has already registered in ELCA GrantMaker, now would be a great time to log back in and confirm that your contact information is current. All previous recipients of a Daily Bread Matching Grant are eligible to apply this year in addition to first-time applicants.
