Key takeaways

  • Ridgeway Community Church names India, Germany, South Africa and Berlin as its priority areas, and it funds Christian mission and debt and food support, so a group doing similar work in those places, or in Wallingford, is the clearest fit.
  • It paid £30,848 in grants in its latest annual report, but no grant range is stated, so a modest request is probably better suited to it than a large one.
  • No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact it shows for getting in touch to ask whether a request would be considered before you send a full application.
  • Deadlines and how competitive its giving is are not stated, so raise timing in that first contact.
  • Nothing states who should not apply, so do not rule yourself out on the basis of this profile alone.
