Atma Vignani Dada Bhagwan Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The foundation's work centres on the Atma Vignan spiritual science of self-realisation, with satsang meetings, books and DVDs, religious-date events for children, support for temple development in India, and humanitarian aid, so a group whose work is close to these themes is the best fit.
- Its Geographic focus line lists the United Kingdom, India and worldwide as priorities.
- Its India support is for organisations with substantially similar objectives, so a group whose aims differ from these is unlikely to match that strand.
- No way to apply was published in the annual report, the register entry or other pages about the charity, so write to it to ask how it takes requests before sending a full proposal.
- The grant range is not stated, and the annual report gives one total of £411,599 that may include grants to individuals, so a modest, clearly costed request is a sensible starting point, though the report does not show how competitive funding is or whether relationships matter.
