Disclaimer: To qualify as a creative-based ministry through Sowfund, applicants must demonstrate that their work primarily serves a faith-based or educational mission rather than a commercial one. Eligible creators must offer their content freely (not behind paywalls or primarily monetized), receive little to no income from targeted ads, sponsorships, or affiliate links, and use donated funds exclusively for ministry-related expenses. All activities and funds are subject to Sowfund’s oversight to ensure accountability and alignment with a public ministry purpose—not the growth of a personal brand or platform. Creators may operate separate businesses or promotional ventures outside of their ministry work; however, these must remain entirely independent from any Sowfund-related activities, donations, or accounts.
