- Geographical Area: ECF support ministries working in the local communities in Middle and North Georgia.
- Sustainable, Episcopal Partnerships: ECF prioritize collaborations that strengthen outreach ministry while also providing an opportunity for Episcopalians to experience spiritual growth through their service.
- Project-Oriented Impact: As ECF’s grants serve the entire Diocese of Atlanta, projects which are oriented around capacity building and capital needs are significantly more attractive as they do not require annual renewal. ECF prioritizes requests that support creating new programs, expanding existing efforts, or innovative ideas and solutions.
