COP Assessment Criteria 2016
The following criteria help the COP Selection Panel draw up a short list of Projects to recommend to the Congregation.
- That we donate the funds that we raise as a response to Christ’s commission to His Church. Our aim is to follow the example of Jesus in providing practical assistance to needy people in our world.
- That we support Projects that are within the spirit of the UCA mission.
- That we ensure that any Project is:
- openly accountable to the public;
- viable;
- managed by trustworthy people; and
- meets appropriate legal requirements.
- That our preference is to support ministries in which we as a Congregation have some personal contact through our members who are engaged in them. In this way we can be kept involved and informed about their work.
- That each submission comprises a completed COP Application Form and any supporting information.
