Hope Now
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Hope Now exists to promote and advance the Evangelical Christian Faith, and its grants support orphanages, foster homes, Bible study centres, churches and healthcare, so a request should show how it serves that purpose and one of these areas.
- Its stated priorities are Ukraine and Sri Lanka, and its annual report shows £482,878 paid out in giving, but no grant range is published, so ask the contact it gives before setting a figure.
- No application process is published, so start with a short enquiry through that contact rather than a full application.
- Nothing published says when it decides grants, how competitive it is or whether existing relationships matter, so ask about these when you make contact.
- Organisations whose work does not relate to the Christian faith or to these areas are unlikely to match its stated purpose.
