Support the Building Fund

The Episcopal Church Building Fund (ECBF) is an independent agency serving the Episcopal Church. You can support the growth and development of the Episcopal Church through a gift to the ECBF.

Based in Richmond, VA, the ECBF supports the missions of congregations throughout the U.S. with loans, training, consultations, national gatherings, education, and print resources. The ECBF was established in 1880, aiding in the planting and development of congregations as the country was expanding. Gifts from dioceses, individuals, and congregations committed to the growth of the church provided a permanent endowment fund that continues to work today.

You are encouraged to contribute to this revolving fund to help new, historic, growing, and re-establishing congregations to fund buildings that will serve as a tool of their ministry. The ECBF mission has expanded from its initial focus on new buildings to include services to established congregations that are finding new ways to maintain their property and buildings, and increase their relevance to and impact in their community.

The ECBF is financially autonomous, receiving no ongoing support from the national church budget or General Convention. All ECBF services and loans are funded entirely from its endowment and investments, which has been built up over the years through gifts and bequests and retained earnings. Please join in contributing to the revolving fund.

Gifts and Bequests

Gifts and bequests to the Fund are gifts that keep giving in perpetuity as they will enable the Fund to continue building the congregations of this Church through ongoing loans and services.
