The Nature of Our Funding

We will be both a Responsive and Proactive Funder. We will seek a letter of enquiry before inviting formal application which will contain the who, what, mission, vision, outcomes from the potential applicant.
For the year ahead we envisage spending 25% of our grants on church planting. 25% on Leadership. And 25% each for Prayer and Gospel contextualisation.
We will only fund work which is done in Scotland.
We may look at specific areas within Scotland for different funding streams, e.g. a focus on one city for church planting.
Applicants must confirm their basis of faith as agreeing with the Evangelical Alliance basis of faith.

Timing

We will work to ensure all applications are considered on a quarterly basis.
