Doxa Deo Community Church
About This Funder
Doxa Deo Community Church is a UK-registered charity in Southwest London, rooted in the global Doxa Deo movement founded by Alan Platt in South Africa in 1996. Its mission, inspired by Habakkuk 2:14 and Matthew 6:10, seeks to transform cities through active Christian faith, delivering Faith to the spiritually lost, Love to those in social pain, and Hope to restore systemic brokenness. As 'City Changers,' it equips individuals and communities with Christ-centred values of transformation, active compassion, inclusiveness, and holistic development, blending evangelism with practical social action via church-led and partnered initiatives.
The church funds thematic priorities like advancing Christian faith, poverty relief, and social restoration, targeting food insecurity, loneliness, youth engagement, social isolation, and family support. Beneficiaries include children, families, the socially disadvantaged, newcomers, and vulnerable groups in Kingston upon Thames and Merton. Supported activities encompass Kingston Foodbank and Fuelbank, Lunch on Jesus meals, Cherish women's groups, Wiggles pre-school outreach, Dads, Lads & Lassies programmes, employment skills via The Abbey café, and hardship grants, emphasising immediate relief and long-term empowerment through multi-sector partnerships.
Eligibility is limited to local community groups and grassroots organisations in Kingston upon Thames and Merton, with a preference for smaller entities addressing aligned needs; there are no formal income thresholds or religious restrictions. Doxa Deo does not accept unsolicited applications—funding is allocated internally by trustees or via pre-selected direct partnerships, with no public deadlines, processes, or open rounds. Typical grants range from a few hundred to several thousand pounds for project costs, restricted initiatives, and outreach, excluding core/unrestricted support for external charities. Its distinctive holistic integration of spiritual nurture and professional community development sets it apart for mission-aligned local actors.
