Covid 19 has brought food insecurity and hunger to thousands of Americans that live in the San Francisco Bay Area.
More than a dozen local Presbyterian Churches are helping with food banks and pantries; and our Presbytery, through the Partnership Working Group, has worked to help by providing these local congregations with $500. grants.
If your congregation has recently received a $500. grant from the Partnership Working Group and would like additional assistance, we ask that you apply, AGAIN and your request will be considered after new church requests are filled.
If your congregation has NEVER applied for a $500. grant to go toward your food bank or pantry, we ask that you apply IMMEDIATELY, YOU HAVE UNTIL JUNE 24th. Because you are a first time applicant you’ll be fast tracked to the head of the line.
Application instructions: send the following information to
All applicants must submit information by June 24, 2020
