What Are Google Ad Grants?
Google Ad Grants provides eligible nonprofits, including churches, with $10,000 per month in free advertising on the Google Search Network. This grant allows you to promote your website, drive traffic to your donation pages, advertise events, and much more, all without eating into your existing budget.
With the grant, your organization can create and display ads on Google, targeting people who are already searching for terms related to your mission, faith-based programs, or community services. These ads appear at the top of the search results, putting your message front and center for potential attendees, volunteers, and supporters.
