KXCare Fund
The KXCare Fund exists so that anyone in our church community can participate in meeting the needs of those who are experiencing financial hardship. The generosity of the church is modelled in Acts 4:32-37, and as such we believe in a communal response to the practical and financial needs within our community.
All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all that there were no needy persons among them.
We set up the KXCare Fund at the start of the Covid pandemic, as a way for us at KXC to financially and practically assist those in our congregation and community who had been adversely affected. As a church you were incredibly generous - we raised a total of £14,765 and have been able to give away 60 grants since March 2020. The fund has helped people in a variety of difficult Covid-related situations - from those who had lost employment or housing, those who were clinically vulnerable, those who experienced the loss of loved ones, and those who had gone into significant debt.
Now, as we enter into a long term cost of living crisis, we are keeping the KXCare Fund going. The guidelines for applying are no longer specific to the Covid pandemic. Anyone in our church community who needs emergency financial support relating to shelter, fuel, food, mental health or physical health, or fleeing domestic/external abuse can apply. Decisions to offer grants are made by an independent panel. If you yourself or anyone you know in our church community could benefit from a crisis grant from the Care Fund then please do encourage them to apply below.
