What can be funded?
A charity’s funding priorities are not always based on specific project costs. They therefore also accept applications for funds to help develop policy, advocacy and research.
Funding Guidelines
- Applicants are asked to carefully review their funding criteria before applying, as they receive many more requests than can be honoured.
- In accordance with their Articles of Association, applicants must share the Christian ethos of the Childs Charitable Trust.
- The Vision of the Trust is to see a world where every person has the potential to hear and respond to the gospel message. The Trust’s Mission, to help achieve the vision, is to strategically fund Christian organisations which actively share the Christian gospel.
Please note that in view of the present Coronavirus pandemic and international financial instability, the trustees are having to critically review all applications with regard to the financial viability of both the organisation and project. You should not make any application for funding if the project in question has been postponed or is likely to be cancelled.
If you have any questions regarding an application, please do not hesitate to contact the office. You can also contact them by email at info@childstrust.org or by telephone on 01323 417944
