A South Carolina private foundation
We take our name from the things that burn — and give ourselves to the work that doesn’t.
Wood Hay Stubble Foundation advances the Christian gospel and strengthens Christian faith worldwide by supporting local churches, Christian schools, missionaries, and mission agencies — through both grants and directly conducted missionary support and short-term mission service.
What we fund
Two commitments, held at the same time. We support the local church and Christian education close to home, and we carry a share of the work of the gospel abroad — not as distant benefactors, but alongside people we know and return to.
Grants to congregations and Christian schools that preach the gospel plainly and disciple the next generation. We look for ordinary faithfulness over years rather than programs, and we prefer to fund the things that are hard to raise money for.
Italy has one of the smallest evangelical populations in Western Europe. We partner with gospel workers there to plant and strengthen local congregations — and travel to serve alongside them in short-term mission.
Our name
