About

Interserve Development Limited, trading as Interserve Australia, is an Australian Christian mission organisation. It raises funds to send and support workers and projects in regions of Asia and the Arab world where Christianity is least known, focusing on holistic ministry that includes community development, education, and health initiatives.

Tips for Applicants

Interserve Development Limited primarily operates as a sending agency, funding its own international mission programs and supporting its workers. It does not offer open grant programs for external organisations or individuals. Prospective mission workers or supporters interested in their work should refer to the 'Join Us' or 'Give' sections of their website for engagement opportunities.

Giving Philosophy

Interserve's giving philosophy is centred on its mission to follow Jesus where he is least known, primarily through sending and supporting Christian workers in holistic ministry. Their financial allocations are primarily internal, directed towards supporting their overseas mission activities and personnel, rather than external grant-making to other organisations. They aim for transformative impact through long-term presence and engagement in communities.
