- Read the ministry’s own statement of faith and its most recent financials or audit.
- Ask your fund’s sponsor if you are unsure a grant is eligible. The sponsor reviews every grant.
Aqueducts are examples drawn from public research (IRS records, ECFA accreditation, and each ministry’s own materials) as of September 2026, provided as-is. Facts change and may be out of date; corrections are welcome through our contact page. A listing is not an endorsement, a partnership, or a recommendation to give, and none of these ministries endorses or is affiliated with Kingdom Portfolios. We receive nothing from any of them; see our Disclosures for the relationships we do have. Kingdom Portfolios is not a donor-advised fund sponsor and never receives, holds, or directs charitable dollars. Your fund’s sponsor decides whether any grant is eligible: confirm a ministry’s current standing on the IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search and its own website before recommending a grant. Organization names belong to their respective owners and are used only to identify them. Nothing here is tax, legal, or investment advice.
