Grant Guidelines
Westmoreland
Congregational United Church of Christ charges the Board of Community
Action (BCA) with the responsibility of managing the church’s outreach
program. One way BCA carries out this obligation is through the Community Action
Grant Program, which distributes funds raised at the Church’s annual fall
bazaar and special offerings at Christmas and Easter.
The Community Action Grant Program serves disadvantaged populations on Westmoreland’s behalf
in accordance with its Declaration of Purpose. Priority is given to
applicant organizations in which Westmoreland church members are actively
involved as volunteers and/or contributors. Preference is given to programs or

Recent grants have ranged from $500 to $2000 and support
activities such as job training, a computer lab and computer workshops,
international education, shelter/housing, and health care. Grants are
not made to individuals.
Grants are awarded in March. Grant applications must be received in the
church office on or before February 28.
