Boroughlea
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Boroughlea's stated objects centre on advancing the Orthodox Jewish faith and relieving poverty, so an organisation whose work sits outside those aims is unlikely to be a good match.
- Its typical grants fall between £22,000 and £48,500, with a median of £31,000, so a request near that range suits what the annual report shows.
- The largest grant it reports was about £155,000, so that band is not a ceiling.
- The trustees choose institutions from their personal knowledge and are not actively inviting applications, though they will accept and carefully consider them, and support depends on circumstances and the funds available.
- The charity publishes no address, email or phone number for applications, so a written approach should be made with that in mind.
