About the organization

Who we are

What is Favored Generation?

A Christian-founded nonprofit supporting individuals, youth and families through practical community programs, education, wellness initiatives, digital access, mentorship, outreach and community connection.

Is Favored Generation a church?

No. We are a nonprofit organization. We have a Christian foundation and we run Bringing Our Worship as a dedicated faith-based initiative, but our general community-support programs are not church services.

Do I need to be Christian to participate?

No. General community programs are open to eligible participants regardless of religious belief or background. A clearly identified faith-based activity may have Christian content, but access to general support never depends on prayer, worship or religious instruction.

Where does Favored Generation work?

We have reported activities in Canada, the United States and Nigeria. Each listing identifies the verified location, partner and reporting year, and says whether the activity is recurring, completed, partner-supported or planned.

Taking part

Programs and volunteering

How do I apply for a program?

Go to the relevant program page for current eligibility, dates, location, availability and application instructions. Some programs use referrals or partner selection rather than a public application.

Browse programs

How are participants selected?

Selection depends on the program’s purpose, location, eligibility, available resources and published criteria. We aim to use fair, transparent and non-discriminatory processes.

How do I volunteer?

Review the current roles and submit a volunteer application. Screening, references, qualifications and training depend on the role.

How do you protect children and youth?

Youth programs use age-appropriate consent, screening, supervision, conduct requirements, safe communication practices, privacy protection and reporting procedures appropriate to the activity and jurisdiction.

Our safeguarding commitment

Giving and partnering

Donations and companies

Will I receive a tax receipt?

Receipt eligibility depends on which legal entity receives the donation, your own jurisdiction, the type of gift and applicable law. The donation form states the receiving entity, the currency, and the receipt or acknowledgement terms before you give.

How giving works

Can I direct my donation to a program?

Where an approved designation is available, yes. We may decline a restriction we cannot administer responsibly. The Donation and Refund Policy explains what happens to a designated gift if the program changes or becomes fully funded.

Can my company partner with you?

Yes. Companies may support approved programs through funding, technology, goods, employee volunteering, professional expertise, matching gifts or event support.

Corporate partnerships

Concerns

Complaints, concerns and emergencies

How do I make a complaint or report a concern?

Use the complaints and feedback route for service or conduct concerns, the accessibility route for barriers or accommodation, and the safeguarding route for anything involving a child, young person or vulnerable participant. Each goes to a different person, which is the point.

Contact routes

Important

Is the contact form an emergency service?

No. Our forms are not monitored as emergency services. If someone is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency number or an appropriate crisis service first.
