Equip and empower the local church to be the center of community and the driving catalyst for restorative relationships and compassionate service locally and globally.
CityServe International’s largest recent grant was $1,084,254 to CityServe Network for Ukraine crisis support, relief supplies, and refugee support. That single award reflects a broader pattern: the foundation funds church-led compassion work that moves through local partners, emergency response networks, and mission programs. Recent grants also show substantial support for disaster relief and international humanitarian work, alongside operating help for partner ministries. The foundation’s giving connects material aid with church capacity building. It has funded church partners for specialty projects, program support, office space, and local outreach while also backing relief efforts for hurricanes, fires, tornadoes, and the war in Ukraine. Among the named recipients, CityServe Network appears repeatedly, including a $822,000 grant in 2024 for Costa Rica mission activation, Maui crisis support, and Ukraine relief, and a $633,748 grant in 2025 for Costa Rica mission activation. Other awards point to a model that combines direct relief with church-based distribution. Grants went to organizations such as Spokes of Hope, No Child Hungry, A21 USA, and World Vision for needs ranging from hurricane response to meal packing, anti-trafficking, and earthquake relief. The pattern is active, partner-driven, and shaped around compassionate service through churches and allied ministries.
CityServe International supports disaster response, refugee relief, and church-led mission work. In crisis response, they gave $350,000 to Spokes of Hope for Hurricane Ian relief for the Little Gasparilla Island restoration project and later $301,500 for Hurricane Helen crisis response. Food security is another visible focus. No Child Hungry received $185,000 for food for a meal-packing event for Ukrainian children, and $60,000 for rescue buckets and 150,000 meals for Maui fire victims. The foundation also backed a $25,000 earthquake relief fundraiser for Turkey/Syria through World Vision. Anti-trafficking and law-enforcement support appear in the grant list as well. A21 USA received $30,000 for assistance to law enforcement and PVOTs, while The Good Call Ministry received $25,000 for Operation Save Ukraine. These awards show a mix of humanitarian relief, prevention, and church-partnered response.

Typical grants cluster at $10,000 at the 25th percentile, a $25,000 median, and $62,875 at the 75th percentile, while the top end reaches far higher for major relief efforts. The recent record shows repeated support to some recipients across multiple years, including CityServe Network, No Child Hungry, Canyon Hills Church, and CityServe-related local affiliates. That points to recurring partnership rather than one-off giving alone. CityServe International is a public charity, not a fund for individuals, and it does not make program-related investments. Unsolicited applications are not part of the described programs, which emphasize partner grants and managed grantmaking channels.
Grant activity is national, with recipients across the United States and no grants recorded to recipients in Missouri, the headquarters state. Oklahoma stands out as the top state by grant count, with awards to Jenks and Tulsa. Bakersfield, California, appears repeatedly through CityServe Network and Canyon Hills Church, and Apopka, Florida, shows up multiple times through No Child Hungry and National Faith Advisory Board. Other recipient cities include Little River, Sarasota, Santa Ana, and Southlake.
They fund churches and church-connected ministries, along with nonprofit partners working on compassion initiatives. Recent grants supported groups such as CityServe Network, Spokes of Hope, No Child Hungry, A21 USA, and World Vision, often for relief, mission activation, or program support tied to church-led service.
The foundation backs food security, disaster response, refugee relief, anti-trafficking, prison ministry, addiction recovery, orphan and foster care, vulnerable populations, and church capacity building. Recent grants also include support for Ukraine relief, hurricane recovery, and meal-packing work for children.
The 25th percentile grant is $10,000, the median is $25,000, and the 75th percentile is $62,875. The recent list also includes larger awards for major crisis response, including seven-figure and high-six-figure grants.
Yes. CityServe Network appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and No Child Hungry and Canyon Hills Church each received more than one grant. That pattern suggests ongoing relationships with selected partners rather than purely one-time awards.
The top state by grant count is Oklahoma. Recipient cities there include Jenks and Tulsa. The overall geographic scope is national, with grants also landing in places such as Bakersfield, Apopka, Little River, Sarasota, Santa Ana, and Southlake.
