Ursulines - Roman Union, England
Key takeaways
- Its stated themes are the Roman Catholic religion, relief of suffering and education, so a project in one of these areas, especially one connected to Ursuline work such as the Ethiopia fund, is the kind of request it is set up to consider.
- Neither its typical grant size nor its grant range is stated, and the annual report gives no usable grants total, so size the request to the project's real cost.
- There is no publicly published application process; the annual report says the trustees weigh real need and review each case on its details, so a short letter setting out the need, the costs and how the work links to the funder's objects is a sensible way in.
- Grants are single-year rather than multi-year, so ask for a cost that can be met within one year.
- How competitive it is and when it decides are not stated.
