Assistance Application
We know seasons of financial hardship can be overwhelming, and we're grateful you've reached out. At Ironbridge, we want to care for people with compassion while also stewarding the resources God has entrusted to us. Because our benevolence fund is limited, we ask that you review the guidelines below before completing an application.
Guidelines
HERE ARE A FEW GUIDELINES TO REMEMBER ABOUT OUR ASSISTANCE PROGRAM:
- Assistance is primarily intended for active members of Ironbridge Church. While our priority is caring for those within our church family, we may consider requests from others as funds and circumstances allow.
- We give priority to those who are actively engaged in the life of Ironbridge Church.
- Depending on your situation, we may recommend financial coaching or other resources that can help provide long-term stability.
- All applications will need to include a copy of the bill you are requesting assistance with.
- Any assistance offered cannot, per the IRS rules, be written to an individual. All checks are written directly to the company that corresponds with the bill submitted.
- Financial assistance is generally limited to one request within a 12-month period.
- It may take up to 2 weeks to process this application so please make sure to plan ahead.
