Key takeaways

  • World Harvest (UK) gave only £150 in annual giving according to its annual report, so a modest request is the realistic size and a large ask is unlikely to fit.
  • Its stated priorities are South Asia and Britain, and it favours health, education, economic development and poverty relief, so a project in those areas is the natural fit to present.
  • It does not fund purposes other than the advancement of the Christian faith or the relief of poverty, nor organisations that are not agencies working in the developing world, so those should not apply.
  • The annual report, its register entry and other pages about it show no way to apply, so a short enquiry before writing a full application is sensible.
  • Grants are budgeted on the prior year's charity shop results, so the amount available may change from one year to the next.
