Some people in our area want to organize a Christian music festival with bands, kids activities, food and entertainment. They’ve been sending out letters of interest to all the county churches to pique interest in attending and sharing the mission and fellowship. They have very little funding, but want to make this a free event that everyone feels welcome to attend.ce on how to propose this to board members greatly appreciated. our mission is to educate and share the love of our Lord.
There are Christian grants and music grants provided by local, state and federal agencies to help pay for non-profit events like this. Think of the good it would do a community to have events like this! Check around with local religious groups and churches to start; they may already know of where to find funding for something of this nature.

Have the performers help you gather a list of names of people who would sponsor the event. You have to pay the sponsors with advertising since they are contributing all the money. Have a sign company make up banners with the advertisers' names and have the performers mention them often.
I wish you would reconsider your idea of free admission. Charge $3 or $5. And set up booths that generate money by selling soda and snacks. If you are really brave you can set up booths that sell dinner like pizza (like the state fair does) but you may have to get a permit for preparing food.
There are no grants. This is something you organize. Get to work.
