The Foundation is organised under the laws of the United Kingdom as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (“CIO”) registered in England and Wales as Charity No. 1184811. As a registered charity, it is regulated by the U.K. Charities Commission and eligible to participate in the U.K. Gift Aid Programme.

Although the charity is organised in the United Kingdom, its activities are worldwide in scope. The Foundation supports projects in many countries, and has made arrangements through the Chapel & York Family of Foundations to allow donors from certain countries, including the United States, to make tax-deductible donations in support of the Foundation and its projects.

The Foundation is governed by a Board of Trustees who are responsible for governance, fundraising and making grants in support of approved projects. Each grant is made pursuant to a Grant Agreement between the Foundation and the grant recipient which sets forth the purposes and conditions attached to the grant and the legal obligations of the recipient. To date, two projects have been approved for support by the Foundation: the St. Timothy Scholarship Programme in Malawi and the Friday Night Supper Club in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada. The Foundation intends over time to establish a broadly diversified portfolio of projects around the world.

The Board of Trustees is assisted by an International Advisory Board whose members support the ecumenical goals of the Foundation and are prepared to lend their names in support of its activities. The International Advisory Board is co-chaired by His Eminence Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin, C.Ss.R., Roman Catholic Archbishop of Newark, New Jersey and His Grace Archbishop Sir David Moxon, former Anglican Primate of New Zealand and until June 2017 Director of the Anglican Centre in Rome and the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Personal Representative to the Holy See.
