About Servant Foundation
Servant Foundation’s recent giving is dominated by very large transfers to Christian ministry and community-development intermediaries, with the biggest listed grant at $344,057,333 to The Signatry Charitable Trust in Overland Park, Kansas. That scale places the foundation in a donor-advised-fund style of grantmaking rather than one-off project support, and the recent grants list shows repeated support for organizations that aggregate or channel generosity, including National Christian Foundation, Come and See Foundation, and Trustbridge Global. The foundation also shows a strong pattern of funding religious ministry organizations alongside community-development entities. In the recent record, Every Home for Christ received multiple awards across 2023 and 2025, while One Hope Inc. appears in several years as well. Other recipients include Alliance Defending Freedom, Life Covenant Church Inc, Church of the King, and Biblica, indicating a portfolio that combines faith-based institutions, ministry outreach, and community impact organizations. The available program descriptions align with that pattern: The Signatry lists grant programs, community grants, grant opportunities, and requests for proposals for nonprofits and Christian ministries in the United States. Leadership is centered on Stephen A. French, and the foundation’s giving is national in scope.
What Servant Foundation Funds
Community development is a major lane in the recent grants record. Servant Foundation gave $55,153,601 to National Christian Foundation in Alpharetta for community development, and also awarded $37,794,255 to Schwab Charitable Fund in Orlando in the same category. Religious ministry is another clear emphasis. The foundation granted $49,523,971 to Every Home for Christ (World Literature Crusade) in Colorado Springs for religious ministry, followed by another $27,552,500 to One Hope Inc. in Pompano Beach for the same purpose. The list also includes support for education and congregational life. Highlands College in Birmingham received $20,183,300 for education, while Church of the King in Mandeville received $10,000,000 for religious ministry. Together, these grants show a mix of intermediary support, ministry expansion, and institutional funding.
How Servant Foundation Gives
The grant-size profile is wide, with a 25th percentile of $10,000, a median of $18,600, and a 75th percentile of $50,000. That sits alongside very large charitable-trust and ministry transfers in the recent record, showing a structure that includes both smaller grants and major balance-sheet movements. This is a donor-advised fund sponsor, not an individual-giving program, and it does not make program-related investments. Recipients appear across multiple years, especially in ministry and community-development categories, which points to recurring relationships rather than isolated awards. The website also references grant programs, community grants, grant opportunities, and RFPs, suggesting organized channels rather than only ad hoc grantmaking.
