The Mustard Seed Fund provides small grants to support high school or college students, or adults from Southeastern North Carolina who are participating in mission trips through qualified 501(c)3 charities and faith-based organizations. The Mustard Seed Fund was established in 2011 as a perpetual legacy to the memory of Wilmington residents Dr. Byron Stratas and Fred Rippy.
