Duke Divinity School is offering grants of up to $50,000 to Christian institutions to nurture the leadership of staff and partners in ministry in a yearlong project.

In 2017, up to five Leadership Development Grants will be awarded to institutions that have demonstrated excellence in their mission and notable influence on other organizations. Typically, applicants are institutions of a scale and scope to have significant impact in their communities. Those might include denominations, seminaries, church-related colleges, consultancies, large membership congregations and Christian non-profit organizations in the United States.

Successful proposals will assess an institution’s current leadership development practices, capitalize on the institution’s strengths, and propose innovative experiments to improve or expand leadership development programs.

Applications are due March 31, 2017, and grants will be announced by June 21, 2017.
