Key takeaways

  • The stated purpose centres on supporting the Congregation's own charitable work, so check whether your project fits that before you write, particularly if it is not in Romania or South Africa, which the funder names as its priorities.
  • The annual report gives annual giving of £250,000, but it does not publish a grant range, so ask the contact shown on its website for a sense of likely size before naming a sum.
  • No application process is published, so start with a short, informal enquiry to the contact rather than a full application.
  • Nothing published says how competitive or relationship-led giving is, so treat the first contact as the main way to learn that.
