How do you select projects?

We connect closely with known partners who are already working in the hard-to-get-to places and have local knowledge, cultural sensitivity and a proven track record. They sign a partner agreement with Entrust promising to operate with integrity & transparency and comply with pre-agreed reporting standards.

Who are your mission partners?

They range from small unknown grass-roots NGO's (Non Government Organisations) to mid sized Aid, Development and Mission Organisations. We have a close personal relationship with all our partner organisations and are in touch with them on a regular basis.

To whom do I make my donation payable to?

For donations that require a tax deductible receipt, first see the project description to ensure the project is deductible and then make your payment "Entrust Foundation". Gifts NOT requiring a Tax Deductible receipt should be made payable to "Entrust Projects" .

Are all Entrust projects tax deductible?

Due to the varying nature and complexity of our projects some are and some are not Tax deductible. This fact is made clear on the Project profile page on our web site.

Can I submit a project for funding?

We struggle to meet all the demands already placed on us. If you feel your project is, strategic, highly leveraged, cutting edge, run on Christian principals and will make a long term difference in the lives of individuals - in predominantly developing nations, email us a brief summary for review. If we wish to take it further we will get in touch with you. Please note our policy does not allow us to fund personal support, vehicles and airfares. All partners must have a legally constituted structure.
