Expense Requests:Expense Grant Request Form: used for both one-time and recurring expense requests and grant report(s). Expense Grant Requests may be submitted before or after the expenditures occur. If prior to expenditures, the requestor may estimate amounts for intended purchases to receive monies in advance of expenditures and would need to submit receipts after expenditures occur along with the grant report. If the Expense Grant Request is submitted after expenditures, the requestor enters the exact purchase amounts on both the request tab and may immediately complete the reporting tab following the reporting guidelines outlined below including receipt submissions. Timeframe of Disbursement: Grant disbursement is subject to available funds. One-time expense grants are normally disbursed upon approval. Recurring expense grants are disbursed monthly on the 10th of the month or the Friday before the 10th, if the 10th falls on a weekend or U.S. bank holiday. |

Stipend Requests:Stipend Grant Request Form: used to request a monthly recurring stipend disbursement to a Designated Grantee. The requestor will note stipend amounts and details about Designated Grantees, and follow the reporting guidelines outlined below including receipt submissions. Amounts for stipends are determined by the church/ministry partnership. Grant stipend disbursement for Designated Grantees is subject to available funds. Grant stipend disbursement amount does not increase based on donations received to the church/project fund. Grant stipend disbursement will result in a lower amount distributed if funding is unavailable. If the fund does not have enough to cover the stipend amount for the Designated Grantee for one month, Reliant will not automatically disburse an additional stipend amount the following month to make up the difference. The distributed amounts can only be increased by submitting a new grant request (either a separate one-time stipend request to make up the difference from previous months missed due to low funding or by requesting a change addendum to the recurring amount request form that more accurately reflects the available funding). If the amounts or names change for the Designated Grantees outlined on the Stipend Request Form, an addendum to the stipend request is required. Addendums require approval by both the Authorized Signer and Reliant. Stipend Agreement: A stipend agreement is a document required to be signed by any Designated Grantee receiving a stipend disbursement to acknowledge Reliant's requirements of a Designated Grantee. Once the stipend agreement has been signed, and the Designated Grantee has been approved, then grant stipend disbursement requests can be officially submitted. Stipend agreements are typically signed and submitted through Reliant's online application system. |
