Key takeaways

  • Quicken Trust does not accept unsolicited requests, so it works by invitation only, and a cold application is unlikely to be considered.
  • Its priority is Kabubbu village in Uganda, and its grants are made at the request of the Kabubbu Development Project for projects at the health centre, schools, welfare services and the community church building, with smaller projects from time to time.
  • Its work centres on education, health care, welfare and Christian faith, and the annual report gives annual giving of £359,304, though that total may include grants to individuals.
  • The grant range is not stated, so the realistic size of a request is hard to judge from the available information, and a grant writer should not assume a particular amount.
