Relational Mission
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Relational Mission is most likely to fit organisations with church links, since its grants are described as going where church contacts can help it meet its objectives more ably or keep closer working links with projects.
- Its stated themes are church planting, church support and poverty relief, so a project in one of those areas is the clearest match.
- No grant range is stated, and annual giving was £68,362, so a modest request is the realistic scale to aim for.
- No application process is published, so the contact on its website is the only route it shows, and a short enquiry to that contact is the sensible first step.
- Before writing, check whether your work has a genuine church connection, because that is the route through which its grants are described.
