At a glance
Key takeaways
- This funder gives to small charities whose work fits Quaker values and concerns, and its donations also support Quaker work nationally and internationally.
- Applications from small charities go to a managing group with representatives from every local Quaker meeting, and the funder accepts applications on a rolling basis, so you can apply at any time.
- Because the Local or Area Meeting agrees which charities to support, a local Quaker connection seems likely to matter more than a cold application, and a modest request fits, since the funder sets aside £5,000 a year for small charities.
- The grant range and geographic focus are not stated, so ask the managing group what it typically gives and whether it supports work in your area, and no exclusions are stated, so check that your work reflects Quaker values and concerns before you apply.
