M25 Initiative Homeless Shower Grant Request for Proposal
The M25 Initiative will provide three grants designated for nonprofits or religious organizations in the cities of Bridgeton, Millville, and Vineland that will provide showers for homeless individuals on a daily, monthly, or weekly basis.
Total Amount of Awards: $15,000 ($5,000 per municipality)
Online Application Due: 12/1/2021
Announcement of Awards: 12/2021
Award Disbursement: January, 2022
Grant Period: January 1, 2022- December 31, 2022
Granting Priorities
Grant requests submitted to the Initiative are viewed in light of our primary objectives as found in Matthew 25:35-36- “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.”
Accordingly, the Initiative has outlined the following priorities by which grant decisions will be made:
1. We seek to equip and empower local organizations and faith-based entities to provide safety net services to the poor and homeless.
2. We seek to foster support for the Cumberland County Code Blue Coalition and/or Housing First Collaborative. Applications should demonstrate how the organization has supported the Cumberland County Code Blue Coalition and/or Housing First Collaborative. Priority will be given to churches and non-profit organizations who have directly participated in the Code Blue and/or the Housing First program (e.g. Move-In Sponsor, Collaborative Partner).
3. We desire to support dynamic projects that show faith in action. Therefore, we typically do not fund individuals who are serving in administrative roles, or projects for debt relief, land or building purchases. Priority will be given to proposals that have an administrative fee of 5% or less.
4. The M25 Initiative developed from the Cumberland County Code Blue Program that demonstrated tremendous success in working with other churches & non-profits in meeting the needs of the community. Therefore, we will give priority to projects that meet community needs through community partnerships. Proposals should identify partner agencies with supporting documentation (e.g. letter of intent to partner).
5. Organizations must be willing to invest financially in a project for the M25 Initiative to consider funding that project. We do not consider in-kind contributions alone as local faith-based/non-profit organization financial support.
