Building Interfaith America Campus Grants

Staff, faculty, and administrators at two- and four-year colleges and universities in the U.S. are eligible to apply. See below for more details.

Grants are up to $5,000 with up to $2,000 eligible to be used to support individuals for their time.

We expect the funded program, training, workshop, or initiative will be implemented between Aug 2022-June 2023.

A portion of grants will be held to prioritize applications with team members who self-identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Color and for initiatives at minority-serving institutions.

These grants aim to support administrators, chaplains, and student life/success staff in strengthening an opportunity to achieve the U.S.’s highest ideals as a religiously diverse democracy. 

The audience for your project could be students, the campus, the broader community, or a combination of all three. 

The grants are $5,000 and will be sent in two payments. Up to $2,000 can be used to support individuals directly (campus professional, student, community partner) for their time. 

These grants are intended to support educators in designing and teaching curriculum that examines and responds to context-specific issues with an interfaith lens. Faculty (including contingent, adjunct, contract, and part-time), staff, and administrators are eligible. 

We encourage partnerships between faculty, fields of study, and campus and community. Projects may include new or redesigned courses, experiential learning, or modules to be used across campus.

The grants are $5,000 and will be sent in two payments. Up to $2,000 can be used to support individuals directly (campus professional, student, community partner).

The application is open from May 10 to June 17, 2022. 

Applicants will be informed of their status by July 18, 2022.

Successful applications will identify evidence for the expressed need, prioritize religious and racial diversity to address that need, and clearly articulate the anticipated outcomes of the project.
