Charitable Grants for Churches
For many churches, knowing where to turn for charitable grants can be a confusing process. However, there are many grant-‐giving organisa<ons available, as well as a large number of groups and ini<a<ves aiming to support parishes in church maintenance, adapta<ons and the development of community-‐focused projects.
Included in this guide are some of the grants available to churches, their contact details, their grant criteria, applica<on informa<on, and a poten<al grant figure. Where possible, it is strongly advised that churches consult the relevant website or personal contact for more informa<on. Where informa<on is unclear or not known, it has not been included within this guide.
Statements of ‘grant poten<al’ should not be seen as a standard sum available to all churches, but instead as a helpful guide to parishes when planning fundraising campaigns. These figures are based on previous grants distributed by the charity, but will naturally be defined and distributed at the charity’s discre<on.
The list of grant-‐giving organisa<ons in this list is not exhaus<ve. New funding opportuni<es emerge from <me to <me and there are many small grants available through various bodies. We will endeavour to keep the list up to date; however, it is highly recommended that you also make use of the free ‘search’ facili<es provided by the websites iden<fied in the ‘Search for Funding’ sec<on of this document.
