Wakefield Baptist Church
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Wakefield Baptist Church paid £5,856 in its annual report, and the recorded giving is for mission and fellowship support and other mission donations, so a request is most likely to fit if it is for that kind of work.
- The annual report does not state a grant range or a geographic focus, so the church's giving area is unclear and a request should not be ruled out on location alone.
- Nothing in the annual report shows how to apply, so find out the church's contact route before writing a proposal.
- Its total giving is modest, so a request should be sized to suit a funder of that scale, and nothing in the annual report says how competitive it is or when it decides.
