The Foundation is beginning the 2011 Grant cycle by partnering with American Baptist Home Mission Societies.  Later in the year, the MRC and IM cycles will begin.  The ABHMS theme, for those wishing to submit an application, is "Discipleship and Incarnational Practice".   For more information and to receive an application, contact ABHMS through their website at:  www.nationalministries.org.

The purpose of the Palmer Grant Program is to make grants available to American Baptist related organizations in order to enhance and expand the ministries of American Baptists, with respect to the following:

• Grants are not be be budget-relieving for the applying organization
• Grants must clearly be related to the ministry of the applying organization
• Since grants are to enhance current ministries, no grants shall be awarded to begin new organizations

This is an exciting time and the Foundation is so grateful to Gordon and Virginia Palmer for their vision and desire to leave a legacy that will impact generations to come.
