King's Church, St Paul's Cray
At a glance
Key takeaways
- King's Church's stated priorities are international work among the poor and the Cray Valley area, so a project that clearly serves one of those fits its objectives best.
- Its annual report gives a single annual giving total of £4,063, which may include grants to individuals, so a modest request is more realistic than a large one.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to contact the church through the address shown on its register entry or website, and neither the annual report nor the website says anything about timing or how competitive its giving is.
- Trustees decide on need and on how well a request fits the charitable objectives, so explain both clearly in any approach.
