Lilly Mbinglo Foundation Church Training Grant

To apply for the Lilly Mbinglo Foundation Church Training Grant, the church must be a registered entity, and it must be committed to improving the skills of its members and pastors in the areas of small business registration, small business management, non-profit registration, non-profit management, small business taxes, non-profit taxes, and church administration.

 To apply for the grant, the church must submit a comprehensive application that includes:

•  A cover letter addressed to the Lilly Mbinglo Foundation, explaining the church's mission and goals and how the training will benefit its members and pastors.
•  A completed application form that includes details about the church's registration status and the number of members and pastors who will participate in the training.
•  A detailed training request proposal that outlines the specific areas of training required, the proposed training schedule, and the expected outcomes of the training.
•  A copy of the church's registration certificate and other relevant documents.

The Lilly Mbinglo Foundation Church Training Grant is open on an ongoing basis, and there are no fixed submission deadlines. However, applicants are advised to submit their applications at least three months before the proposed training start date to allow ample time for review and processing.

All applications will be reviewed by a committee within The Lilly Mbinglo Foundation which will evaluate the proposals based on their quality, feasibility, relevance to the training objectives, and potential impact on the church and its members. Shortlisted applicants may be invited for an interview or site visit to assess the suitability of the proposed training plan.

Successful applicants will be notified of the grant award via email or phone. The grant award will cover the cost of the training, including trainer fees, training materials, and venue rental fees (if the venue will be outside the church premises), up to a maximum amount determined by the Lilly Mbinglo Foundation.

Recipients of the grant will be required to submit a report on the training outcomes, including the number of participants, the training topics covered, and the impact on the church and its members. The report should also include an evaluation of the effectiveness of the training and recommendations for future improvements.

By following these guidelines, churches can apply for the Lilly Mbinglo Foundation Church Training Grant to improve the skills of their members and pastors in various areas of business management and administration, non-profit management, and church administration.
