Key takeaways

  • Achim accepts applications on a rolling basis, but it publishes no address, email or phone number to send one to, so the route in is not stated.
  • Its objects are for the benefit of members of the Orthodox Jewish community, so work that does not accord with those objects is unlikely to fit, although the trustees consider all the requests they receive.
  • Its typical grants fall between £10,000 and £86,000 and the median grant was £18,000, so a request in that region is realistic, though the band is not a ceiling.
  • Donations depend on the level of funds available, so a fitting request can still go unfunded.
