The English Region of the Daughters of Mary and Joseph
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The charity's stated fields are healthcare, education, social and pastoral care, and overseas work, with a stated priority on the USA and Africa, and its giving is aimed at the religious and charitable works of its Congregation, so a small nonprofit should first check whether its own work connects to these areas.
- The annual report shows £305,890 awarded in the latest year reported, but no grant range is stated, so there is no published guide to the amount to ask for.
- Grants are single-year payments rather than multi-year grants, so a request should be framed around a one-off cost.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown and ask how requests are considered before writing a full proposal.
- Trustees review each case and make grants where they consider there is real need, so the request should make that need clear; the sources do not say how competitive the funder is.
