Dabbagh Welfare Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Its stated themes are poverty relief, emergency response, food security, clean water, medical care, shelter and livelihood support, so a project in one of these areas is the clearest fit, and its stated priority areas include the UK, Africa, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Yemen, Afghanistan and Morocco.
- Total annual giving was £15,000 in its latest reported year and no grant range is published, so a modest, specific request is the realistic size to plan around.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact on its website to ask whether your project fits before sending a full proposal.
- Neither its annual report nor its website says how it makes decisions or how competitive it is, so treat that first conversation as the way to learn its process.
