The Foundation for World Evangelism concentrates almost all of its giving on evangelical Christian mission work, primarily providing large operating support to mission-focused organizations and intermediaries. Its funding is heavily concentrated in a single very large grant to a grantmaking intermediary (Summit Foundation), with smaller direct gifts to U.S.-based cross-cultural mission agencies and Arabic-language Christian ministry. The pattern suggests an international evangelism focus delivered via a central conduit plus selective direct support for field ministries.
Extremely concentrated and strategic: a dominant, very large multi-million-dollar grant (split into two payments) to a single intermediary, supplemented by occasional much smaller operating support grants to mission agencies. Emphasis is on unrestricted/operating support rather than project-specific funding, suggesting long-term capacity-building through a central conduit.
