The Episcopal Church announces the opening of applications for Conant Grants for the 2025-2026 academic year. The deadline to apply online is Monday, Jan. 6.

Conant Grant funds are designated for the improvement of seminary-based theological education. Specifically, the grants are directed for the support of research, writing, and course development by faculty members at the recognized Episcopal seminaries in the United States.

The grant awards are derived from a trust fund established by William Shubael Conant in 1953. Last year, 15 Conant Grants were awarded for a total of $108,378.

Please note that those who were awarded grants in 2024 and have either deferred or not completed the projects will not be eligible for an award in 2025.

For more information, contact grants associate Ann Hercules, ahercules@episcopalchurch.org.

Applications will be reviewed by the Executive Council Conant Fund Grant Review Committee.
