Share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with families worldwide and distribute Gospel resources (including the Amazing Grace booklet) while meeting physical needs through relief and local ministry partnerships.
Amazing Grace Life pairs Gospel distribution with direct relief, and its recent grants show that pattern clearly: large awards to organizations serving children, families, and people in crisis alongside Christian education and ministry support. The foundation’s AGL Grants program backs organizations that align with its mission to deliver the gospel and bring hope during tragedy, including local and international ministries that distribute Gospel resources and respond to crises. Recent support includes $96,000 to Youth Believing in Change for religious and educational support and $75,000 to Samaritan's Purse for Christian relief around the world. Other awards point to the same blend of evangelism and practical aid, from disaster relief to homelessness, orphan care, camp scholarships, and benevolent family services. The grant list also shows repeated support to several recipients across multiple years, suggesting ongoing relationships rather than isolated gifts. Many awards are targeted to organizations that combine faith-based programming with service delivery, especially in Dallas-area communities and broader relief work. Through those grants, Amazing Grace Life funds both Gospel-centered outreach and material assistance for vulnerable people.
Christian education is a visible part of the portfolio. The foundation gave $62,700 to West Dallas Community School for educational support in 2023, then followed with $50,000 in 2024 and $56,060 in 2025. Youth and family support also appears through camp and mentoring grants, including $50,000 to Pine Cove for camp scholarships in 2025 and $80,000 to Young Life for general support in 2023. Relief and crisis response is another thread: in 2025, Amazing Grace Life awarded $70,000 to Inspired Vision Compassion Center for disaster relief. The portfolio also includes support for homeless assistance and orphan care, with awards to organizations such as Our Calling and Buckner International. Across these areas, the foundation uses both program-specific and general support to back faith-based service organizations.
Typical grant size is $4,625 at the 25th percentile, $16,000 at the median, and $30,000 at the 75th percentile. The recent grant list shows repeated awards to the same organizations across 2023, 2024, and 2025, including multiple grants to youth, education, relief, and homeless-service groups, which points to ongoing relationships rather than one-time gifts. The foundation makes organizational grants through AGL Grants and accepts unsolicited requests. It does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments.
