Google Ad Grants for Churches

$10,000 Per Month in Free Google Advertising for Your Church

What is Google Ad Grants?

Google Ad Grants is a program that provides eligible nonprofit organizations, including churches and religious organizations, with up to $10,000 per month in free Google Ads advertising. This means your church can appear at the top of Google search results when people in your community are actively searching for terms like 'churches near me,' 'Sunday service,' 'Bible study groups,' and more—all without spending a dime on advertising.

Success Stories

We've helped churches of all sizes leverage Google Ad Grants to reach their communities:

Example 1

A mid-sized church in suburban Atlanta was struggling to attract young families. Within three months of implementing their Google Ad Grant, they saw a 300% increase in website traffic and welcomed 15 new families who found them through Google search.

Example 2

A small rural church used its Ad Grant to promote a community outreach event. The campaign reached over 50,000 people in their area and resulted in 200 event attendees, many of whom had never visited the church before.

Maximizing Your $10,000 Monthly Grant

Many churches leave thousands of dollars on the table by not fully utilizing their Google Ad Grant. The average church uses only 20-30% of its available budget. Here's how we help you maximize every dollar:

Expanded Keyword Strategy: We identify hundreds of relevant search terms to capture every opportunity

Geographic Targeting: Focus on your local community or expand to nearby areas looking to grow

Event Promotion: Highlight Easter services, Christmas programs, VBS, and special events

Ministry-Specific Campaigns: Create separate campaigns for youth ministry, worship teams, Bible studies, and community outreach

Seasonal Optimization: Adjust campaigns for high-traffic seasons like Christmas, Easter, and back-to-school

Landing Page Optimization: Ensure your website converts visitors into attendees with compelling calls-to-action.
