This foundation concentrates almost exclusively on funding Churches of Christ, providing large, unrestricted general-fund support to congregations and affiliated mission work. Grants are few but sizable and include both local/regional U.S. congregations and explicit international mission support (India). The pattern suggests a donor focused on sustaining core Church of Christ ministries rather than a broad portfolio of causes.
Highly concentrated giving: very few grants but large award amounts, repeat support to at least one congregation, and preference for unrestricted 'general fund' gifts to faith-based organizations.
A defining feature of To Preach the Gospel is its concentration on Churches of Christ, with grants aimed at sustaining congregations and affiliated mission work through general fund support. The largest recent awards show that pattern clearly: $957,568 to Crossville Church of Christ in 2023, followed by $900,000 to Tara Church of Christ in 2025 and another $900,000 to Crossville Church of Christ in 2025. Those are not project-tied awards; they are broad gifts intended to support church operations and ministry continuity. The foundation’s giving is built around a small set of church recipients rather than a wide thematic portfolio. Several congregations appear repeatedly, which points to an ongoing relationship model rather than one-off project funding. Church of Christ India Mission is also part of that core group, indicating that the foundation’s church-centered support extends beyond local U.S. congregations to mission work as well. Across the recent-grants list, the same general-fund framing appears again and again, showing a preference for flexible support rather than restricted program grants.
Churches of Christ congregations make up the core of To Preach the Gospel’s grantmaking. In 2025, the foundation gave $90,000 to Marion Church of Christ in Marion, Arkansas, and $18,000 to Pea Ridge Church of Christ in Montevallo, Alabama, both marked as general support. It also awarded $12,000 to Hoover Church of Christ in Hoover, Alabama, again as a general gift. Church-centered mission work is another clear theme. The foundation gave $145,000 to Church of Christ India Mission in Hamilton, Alabama, in 2025, and the same organization also received $89,000 in 2023 and $70,000 in 2025. The repeated support suggests an established commitment to mission activity alongside congregational giving. The Alabama church network appears frequently as well. Albertville Church of Christ, Crestview Church of Christ, and Pleasant Grove Church of Christ each received additional general-fund grants, reinforcing a pattern of sustaining local church operations rather than funding a single program area.
To Preach the Gospel makes moderately sized grants, with a typical range centered at $3,000 at the 25th percentile, $8,000 at the median, and $14,000 at the 75th percentile. The recent-grants list also includes very large outliers, including multiple six-figure gifts. The pattern is repeat support rather than one-time giving. Crossville Church of Christ, Church of Christ India Mission, Marion Church of Christ, Pea Ridge Church of Christ, Crestview Church of Christ, Hoover Church of Christ, Pleasant Grove Church of Christ, Forest Park Church of Christ, and Buchanan Church of Christ all appear more than once across the recent-grants list. The foundation does not fund individuals and makes no program-related investments. Its grants are described as general fund or general gift support, which indicates flexible operating support.
