Holston Foundation Grant Application 2025

Generous donors have made gifts that enable the Holston Foundation to support United and formerly United Methodist churches, ministries, and organizations with grants. The Holston Foundation stewards nearly 200 special-purpose endowments and scholarships that were created by generous donors and families who wanted to support specific ministries and students. Their legacies and gifts make the Holston Foundation’s grants and scholarships possible.

For these grants, the Holston Foundation considers church/organization budget, clarity of vision, sustainability, need, and systemic impact in the awarding. Grant and scholarship applications are awarded annually. New applications are available on January 1, 2025 and are due on April 4, 2025.
