About Tyndale House Foundation

Tyndale House Foundation is a faith-driven family foundation that funds Christian literature and media, Bible translation, and ministry activities that promote the Gospel both in the United States and internationally. They prioritize projects that produce or distribute Christian books and materials, support translation work, and strengthen training, discipleship, education, and compassion ministries. Grants appear to be general-purpose support for Christian ministries and agencies rather than narrowly targeted RFPs.

General grantmaking to Christian ministries and agencies (U.S. and international).

Annual giving is mid-range (several million), suggesting multiple moderate-sized grants per year.
