Purpose The Advancement of Religion Benefits The direct benefits which flow from this purpose include raising awareness and understanding of the Christian Gospel. Other benefits include provision of education, healthcare, literacy and economic development. Through acceptance of the Christian Gospel many have been delivered from bad habits such as
alcoholism, immoral lives, criminal lives and family life improved. Demonstrated These benefits are demonstrated through regular feedback and evaluation of the charities supported. Is any harm or possibility of harm outweighed by the benefit ? Whilst people are invited to embrace the Christian faith, any response is entirely voluntary. We try to ensure no improper pressure is applied. However as we do not have full control over the grant recipients there is always this risk, though it is rare and the benefits outweigh the harm. Is there any private benefit ? Is it incidental or necessary ? Most large grants are paid direct to recognised charities and organisations and as such there should be no private benefit. Payments to smaller local charities are much lower in value and would be considered incidental. Who is the benefit for ? The main beneficiaries are people world-wide and channelled through UK charites. Purpose Relief of distress and poverty.
