Key takeaways

  • Kenneth Copeland Ministries is worth approaching only if your work shares its Christian objects and aims, because the funder does not fund organisations or individuals who lack similar objects and aims.
  • Its typical grant falls between £2,350 and £28,000, with a median of £10,000, and its largest grant was about £79,500, so a modest request within that range is a realistic size.
  • The funder publishes no application process; the trustees consider a written submission with project documentation, a vision or mission statement, a financial plan or accounts, supporting statements from people with relevant knowledge, and website material.
  • The trustees weigh whether a relationship exists or could develop, so a prior connection will be considered, and successful recipients must provide periodic updates on progress and use of funds.
  • Organisations whose goals do not share the charity's objects and aims should not apply.

Overview

Kenneth Copeland Ministries is a charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (charity number 326392).

Kenneth Copeland Ministries is a charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, and its purpose is to advance and promote the Christian faith and doctrine. It works mainly by distributing teaching resources, broadcasting Christian teaching, using social media, distributing a free monthly magazine and Partner letter, and providing events. Alongside this, it gives grants through three programmes: Twice Sown Seed, which sends ten per cent of every seed sown to the charity to other connected ministries around the world; the Relief Fund, which responds to immediate relief needs and disasters; and a Tithe Fund, to which the charity commits 10% of unrestricted income. In the latest annual report it awarded £279,437 in grants.

What they fund

Priority Areas

The foundation supports other ministries whose goals are consistent with its own, through grants to organisations and individuals with similar objects and aims. Its trustees allocate a designated fund to charities, partner churches or ministries that operate in alignment with the ministry’s vision and purpose; these recipients are primarily located in the UK, Europe and parts of the Middle East. The giving supports work in varied settings, including poverty relief and Christian teaching materials. Through its Relief Fund, it supports community outreaches and responds to natural or human-made disasters around the world. In deciding whether to provide financial support, the trustees consider whether a relationship exists or could develop, and recipients are expected to provide periodic updates so progress and use of funds can be monitored.
