• Why: Why are we able to offer these charitable outreach grants? One of our longtime, devoted members willed his estate to St. Paul's. This gift allows us to assist people in promoting social justice in God's world.
• What: What will we award? St. Paul's will award grants up to $10,000 each (disbursement amounts and schedule to be determined at the Foundation’s discretion) for proposals that address the goals of our mission. These grants will be awarded specifically toward "root-cause" programs or those that address underlying social problems, according to the following designated yearly focus:

Year	Focus
	Primary	Secondary
2011	Hunger	Health care
2012	Children	Hunger
2013	Elderly	Children

(Note: the secondary focus represents the previous year's primary focus and will be funded only if this year's monies are not used in their entirety for the current year's primary focus.)
