Invitation only
Unsolicited applications are not accepted

This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. Don't spend time on an approach; the similar funders below support the same kind of work.

Key takeaways

  • Emmanuel Church's giving centres on mission activities, in the UK and abroad, so work that supports church mission is the closest fit, and its Hardship Fund supports local families where needs have been identified.
  • The church does not accept unsolicited requests, so a cold application will not be considered and the realistic route is an introduction or invitation.
  • Neither its annual giving nor its grant range is stated in the annual report or the register, so the size of a sensible request cannot be judged from what is available, and a modest, clearly costed ask is the safest starting point.
  • Its website invites regular giving to its Mission Agencies and Partners, which suggests that organisations already working with those partners may find the most natural way in.
