Anjuman-e-Burhani (London)
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Anjuman-e-Burhani (London) makes discretionary grants to individuals and institutions for assistance within its objects, which centre on the religious and charitable purposes of the Dawoodi Bohra Jamaat of London and the wider community, with relief of need and hardship among its stated themes.
- Its stated priority is London, and its trustees prefer large single grants to many smaller ones, so a small nonprofit should make one well-reasoned request for a substantial sum rather than several small ones.
- Applications are formal written requests setting out the reasons for the grant, and the trust accepts them on a rolling basis, so there is no deadline to wait for.
- There is no stated information on how competitive the trust is or whether contact beforehand helps, so check that your work fits its objects before writing.
- Nothing stated excludes any type of applicant, but a request that does not connect to religious purposes or relief of need is less likely to match the themes the annual report describes.
