The project must normally assist the Church where Christians are a minority and face discrimination, injustice, violence or other persecution. The Church could mean a Christian community, an individual Christian or Christian family, or the mission of the Church in making known the Gospel.
Priority is given to:
|
• Projects which are small-scale • Projects where a small sum can make a substantial difference • Projects which train Christian leadership • Projects which have no other outside financial help • Projects with good accountability structures |
Projects must be supported or administered by a reputable local Christian organisation or Church structure. Funds are not given direct to individuals in need.
There is careful monitoring of all projects supported to ensure gifts from Barnabas Aid are used according to the stated need for which they were given.
