Services include social impact investing, legacy and estate giving, international grant making, research services and Stewardship’s innovative Donor Advisory Board, which uses the board structure to enable input from family, friends and advisers without the legal burden of charity trusteeship.

Stewardship was founded over a century ago by a small group of Christians who partnered to release generous gifts and financial support to Christian ministries. Today, we help over 30,000 people experience the joy of being generous stewards, giving more than £100 million each year to over 6,000 charities, 4,000 churches and 2,300 Christian workers.

Through our Diversity Champions, we work with over 750 members across the public, private and third sectors to help them create inclusive and accepting environments for almost a quarter of the UK workforce. We campaign, lobby and fundraise to enable LGBT people to be themselves, whoever and wherever they are.
