Giving Philosophy

The Foundation exists "to provide financial support and services for Christian Community Churches and associated organisations to grow and flourish" through competitive lending rates, flexible finance, professional insurance and trusteeship services, and disaster relief assistance. They operate as both a financial intermediary and direct service provider within the Christian Brethren network, prioritizing economic sustainability to enable ongoing support.

Wealth Source:Financial services and investment income generated through lending operations to Assemblies (churches), deposits from members, rental income from investment properties, retirement village operations, and education service fees from Christian schools and childcare centres owned by controlled entities.

Tips for Applicants

This Foundation primarily serves Christian Community Churches (Assemblies) and Christian Brethren organizations within their established network. They operate more as a financial services provider (loans, mortgages, insurance, trusteeship) than a traditional grantmaking foundation. Direct donations are minimal (under $30,000 annually). Organizations seeking support should have existing connections to the Christian Brethren movement and may benefit more from their lending and professional services than grants. The Foundation controls schools and childcare centres through subsidiaries Christian Community Ministries Limited and Lutanda Children Services Limited.
