Ashkelon Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Ashkelon Foundation's objects centre on poverty relief within the Jewish community, the advancement of the Orthodox Jewish religion, and education in line with Orthodox Jewish faith, so a group whose work falls outside those objects is unlikely to fit.
- It gives grants almost always to institutions, though it can also give to individuals, and the annual report shows £362,250 paid in the most recent year.
- Neither a typical grant size nor a grant range is stated, so ask for a sum that matches your project's real costs rather than one you assume is usual.
- No way to apply appears in the annual report, its register entry or other pages about it, so the sensible first step is to write to the foundation and ask how it accepts applications.
- The annual report shows grants mainly in England and London, but no geographic focus is stated, so do not assume you are excluded from elsewhere.
