Key takeaways

  • Its stated theme is poverty relief, so the work fits best where it helps poor and needy people, and food distribution is one of the things it does through its Pesach project.
  • Its annual giving is £6,900 on the register and no grant range is stated, so any request should be modest, and it is worth asking the trust what size of grant it usually considers.
  • No application process is published and none was found in its annual report or register entry, so a short written enquiry asking whether it accepts approaches and how is the sensible first step.
  • Its timing, competitiveness and how it decides are not described, so do not assume how it will respond.

Priority Areas

The foundation uses income, mainly from charitable donations, to provide grants and donations to poor and needy people. It also distributes food to the poor and needy through its Pesach project. Its support therefore combines grants and donations with food distribution for the poor and needy. The charity describes grants and donations as its use of charitable income, and food distribution through the Pesach project as another part of its work. In its own terms, this is assistance for the poor and needy, alongside its food distribution activity.
