ARE YOU A NONPROFIT SEEKING FUNDS?
Changes to the Interfaith Social Action Council Grant Process
The Interfaith Social Action Council (ISAC) has awarded thousands of dollars in grants each year to South Shore service organizations with an approved IRS 501c3, c19 designation or a not-for-profit school or church. We are reorganizing our Fall/Winter grant cycles into an annual grant cycle, allowing us to match our fund distribution with our fiscal year which runs 4/1 – 3/30. We believe that the certainty of available funds will allow us to increase our yearly grant dollar distributions. Grant applications will be accepted starting December 1st through midnight, January 15th. Applicants may be requested for an in person interview between January 16th and February 28th. During the month of March, the Grant Committee will discuss all grants and make recommendations to the ISAC Board for approval. The entire ISAC Council will vote on the grants at the Council meeting held in the third week of March. Applicants will be notified after the voting, with grant check distribution to be scheduled in early April. Other changes to the grant process include that a copy of the official IRS tax status be presented as part of the application. The Grant Committee will also be offering an opportunity to schedule appointments to answer questions about the grant forms and process. Requests for appointments may be made by email to isacofscc@gmail.com. One thing that has not changed is the requirement that a final report on any previous ISAC grant must be filed prior to submitting a new grant request. Updated grant application forms can be found on the ISAC website: www.interfaithcouncilscc.com under the Grants tab.

He has deep roots from his tenure on tour with Alabama, Restless Heart, and the Oak Ridge Boys, but his heart for serving the Lord has led him to where he is today. Chris’s ability to captivate an audience with an inspirational message has afforded him opportunities to perform for every living United States President and share from prestigious stages such as The Ryman Auditorium, The Grand Ole Opry House, Dollywood, The Huckabee Show, Larry’s Country Diner, and The Holy Land (Israel). Daughter Elizabeth Golden, an exceptional artist in her own right, will be performing with her dad. Elizabeth is also an extremely talented fiddle player with a beautiful voice and a Grand Ole Opry favorite! In addition to his own endeavors and touring schedule, Chris is an award-winning music producer and is highly decorated throughout various organizations with his most recent honor being voted 2021 JMA (Josie Music Awards) Gospel Artist of the Year, ICMA’s 2019 Entertainer of the Year (Inspirational Country Music Association), 2020 Instrumentalist of the Year, and Producer of The Year, with his latest album 'Grateful' garnering FIVE number one songs and multiple awards. Despite all of Chris’s success, he understands who he serves. In 2010, he was told by someone (who was undeniably heaven sent) to, “Play for the One who gave you the gift.” By doing so, he seeks to help others forget about the world for 75 minutes, worship, and take away a good dose of hope, love, and light.

But love prevails as Sylvie’s friends and bridesmaids collaborate to help the bride and groom get rid of the witch,” says director Mary Anne Moseley-Sapia. “The cast of actors will tickle your funny bones.” Doors open 30 minutes before curtain.
