Purpose
An Effective Development Model
Assess. Partner. Transform.
Through ARDF, you support leaders working with Anglican Churches around the globe. Your dollars go only to projects that have been desired, developed, and designed by the local community and every project proposal undergoes thorough research by an independent third-party to ensure that it will be effective and sustainable over the long term.
Timely Relief Efforts
ARDF also supports local churches serving their communities after a crisis. We commit resources and connect volunteers to trainings and opportunities to serve. We also stand by our partners for the long-haul, knowing that the impact of a disaster always outlives the world's attention.
Mission statement
The Anglican Relief and Development Fund (ARDF) mission is to efficiently connect Anglican churches in the U.S. and worldwide with resources to effectively meet the needs of their communities, resulting in a greater witness to the Kingdom of Christ. ARDF does this through well-researched community development projects and locally implemented disaster response.
