Emergency Grants: When the Unexpected Happens
Sometimes those who serve the church encounter unexpected situations that present financial challenges. The United Church Board for Ministerial Assistance (UCBMA), the philanthropic arm of the Pension Boards, offers emergency grants for active or retired clergy, lay church workers, and Members in Discernment to help meet eligible needs.
Grant Assistance for Times of Need
The United Church Board for Ministerial Assistance (UCBMA), the philanthropic arm of the Pension Boards, provides direct financial support and compassionate responses to authorized ministers, lay church employees, and their surviving spouses/partners, in times of urgent need and personal crises. Learn about the types of grants we offer, and email ministerialassistance@pbucc.org for more information.
Very often, if we’re not careful, we don’t know how to go about asking for help to get the support we need, and that is especially true for ministers. Ask for help!Veronica Kyle
