New Community Network
At a glance
Key takeaways
- This funder is not primarily a grant-making charity, does not solicit applications, and publishes no application process, so there is no open route to a grant and any first contact should aim to build a relationship.
- Its stated themes are Christian faith, education, creative arts and poverty relief, and its priority areas are Kenya, Africa and India; it normally funds projects in a place and for a purpose it cannot undertake itself, such as international crisis relief.
- No grant range is stated, and its grants to institutions total £91,740, so any request should be pitched with that scale in mind.
- Its grants to individuals go to people it has personal contact with, so a small nonprofit should not expect that route.
- Grants are made 'from time to time', so no timing or funding round can be planned around.
