Friends of Concordis
Would you like to support our work?
Become a Friend of Concordis.
We are relational peacebuilders. We work by building trusting relationships with those we are invited to help, from all sides of a conflict situation.
Equally, we are keen to feel we are also in trusting relationship with those who support us financially.
That’s why we have Friends of Concordis.
All you do to be a Friend is give us a regular gift; the amount and regularity is your choice.
It’s a way that people who give us money walk with us, knowing the stories and the people who do this incredibly courageous work.
The support of our Friends is essential to Concordis; you are a tremendous source of encouragement as well as practical help.
By becoming a Friend, you will underpin our work. Your contribution will fund vital things.
The crises that create unexpected expenditure: there are a lot of unforeseen challenges working in war zones. Things are often unpredictable. Sometimes our staff need ready funds faster than donors can release them. Friends’ funds are ready for those moments.
Exploring new invitations: we can send staff to visit a community who are requesting our help, before we have to fund a programme there. And when we’re there, we might be able to help quickly and effectively, using Friend’s funds.
Enabling flow from one funding cycle to the next, so staff can stay in the field and relationships are not compromised. If we have to move in and out of a conflict zone along with donor funding cycles, it challenges the trust we build up, because we promise to remain in support for the long term. Friends funds ensure continuity.
Supporting local need where it is found, enabling staff to respond quickly to initiatives that will underpin peace. Be that sewing machines to enable women set up businesses, travel expenses for a tribal chief to attend a peace conference, or support for the talent night of a youth peace gathering. Friends funds enable real needs to be met.
