Budget Management

These short videos cover everything you need to know about managing a grant project’s finances and budget. 

For Worshiping Communities Grantees

  • How to Access and Understand the Grant Budget

  • How to Submit a Budget Revision

As your grant project progresses, you might find you need to revise your budget. This can happen if costs change or if your learning leads you to take your work in a different direction. While the total amount of a Vital Worship, Vital Preaching grant can never increase, budgets for different facets of a project can be revised within the allotted amount.

Please get CICW’s approval on budget revisions before shifting your spending. To submit a request, please email worshipgrants@calvin.edu with an explanation of the revisions you need, along with an updated Excel budget form.
