Biblica recognized for giving

Colorado Springs’ faith-based nonprofit organization Biblica – a new name for the International Bible Society and Send in the Light which merged during 2007 – has been named one of the country’s Top 20 Grant-making Foundations for Christian Organizations.

The foundation gives both nationally and internationally to Christian organizations that further its mission of translating, interpreting and publishing the Bible. Its stated goal is: “To give more and more people throughout the world the opportunity to experience the Bible.” www.biblica.org

The organization also publishes and markets Christian books as well as supports worldwide missionary and philanthropic programs.
