BAPTIST BUILDING FUND

Our charity is a lasting testimony to the group of London Baptist ministers who were blessed with the vision of setting up the Baptist Building Fund (BBF) in London in 1824, to help ministers and congregations to raise funds to build churches. At first we gathered donations from wealthy sponsors and made grants to churches across the British Isles; later, we moved to providing interest-free loans, so that we could recycle our funds to help more churches. Over the years hundreds of churches in the UK and Ireland have benefited from our loans and grants to help build new premises or develop existing churches to help in God's mission. Baptist Building CIO has recently taken over the activities of BBF and continues this good work... Our aim is always to work in partnership with churches to support them in their missional work through our loans and grants. We are independent of all the Baptist Unions and networks in the UK but we seek to work closely with them, including the Baptist Union..
