Summary submissions are closed for the Fall 2026 cycle. Submissions will be accepted again in mid-January, date and time TBD. Part 2: Charis trustees will review the summaries and select 50 groups that will receive instructions for submitting a more extensive grant request for possible funding ( NOTE: not all of the 50 selected agencies will receive funding ) .
