Burford Church
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Burford Church's giving is built around Christian mission, so a request should explain clearly how the work fits that purpose and how it serves its mission partners.
- Its stated priority is the UK, and its giving is mainly through grants overseen by its World Missionary Committee.
- The annual report gives total giving of £32,148, which may include grants to individuals, and no grant range is stated, so a modest request is the safest starting point.
- No application process is published, so a small charity should get in touch through the contact shown on its website before writing a formal request.
- The church says it builds deep relationships with selected mission partners, so expect the approach to be relationship-led rather than competitive.
