At a glance
This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. Don't spend time on an approach; the similar funders below support the same kind of work.
Key takeaways
- This funder accepts applications only by invitation from the administrative units of the Infant Jesus Sisters, and it does not accept unsolicited requests, so a charity outside that network should not apply.
- Within that network, it responds to needs identified by sisters and administrative units and considers requests on the basis of need and demand, with themes in education, ministries to young people, health care and pastoral or parish ministries, and a stated priority for Africa.
- It makes no personal grants to individual sisters except for religious formation expenses.
- The annual report gives €1,387,977 awarded in its latest year, but no grant range is stated, so do not assume a typical grant size.
