We value granting to charities that may be less likely to receive funding from larger or public sources. We prioritize projects that serve marginalized people in all corners of the globe.

We prioritize grants that increase charity capacity to serve marginalized people or that empower individuals to achieve long-lasting economic self-sufficiency, physical well-being or spiritual growth. We prefer grants that propel projects forward.

We prioritize funding projects that result in measurable improvement in the factors that gave rise to the project. We emphasize charities meeting the proposed specific outcomes that demonstrate the intended end result and impact of the project.

We value projects that increase the long-term capacity of individuals to affect and sustain change for themselves or that directly increase the long-term efficiency, effectiveness and impact of charities in serving marginalized people.

We are committed to providing for a balance of international and Canadian needs.

BIBLICAL APPROACH

We will conduct ourselves in a God-honouring manner and prefer that all applicants do the same.
