Kids Rally Community Impact Grant: Empowering Children to Serve and Shine for Jesus

Clovis, Calif. – The Central California Conference (CCC) Children’s Ministries Department is launching an exciting new initiative designed to inspire young hearts to serve their communities for Christ. The Kids Rally Community Impact Grant invites local churches to host creative, service-focused rallies that show children they don’t have to wait until adulthood to make a difference for Jesus—they can start right now.

With $23,000 in total funding dedicated to this effort, the program aims to support churches in organizing vibrant, family-friendly rallies that blend faith, fun, and community service. Grants will range from $500 to $3,000, depending on the size, scope, and budget of each proposed event.

Churches are encouraged to apply individually or, ideally, to collaborate with nearby congregations in hosting joint events that unite their communities around a shared mission. Each Kids Rally should feature a lively, festival-style atmosphere—whether on a church campus, in a local park, or within the neighborhood—and include an active outreach component that allows children and families to serve others together.

“The goal is to help kids see that they can live out their faith in tangible ways,” said CCC Children’s Ministries leaders. “We want to nurture a generation of children who love Jesus deeply and understand that their actions, even now, can bring light and hope to others.”

Grant applications open January 15 and close March 15, 2026. Award notifications will be issued by April 1, and all Kids Rally events should take place between April and November 2026.
