Friends of Achiezer Arad
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Poverty relief is the main theme in its stated focus, so projects that tackle hardship fit best.
- Its only stated exclusions are purposes that are not charitable under English law and individuals who do not qualify as charitable beneficiaries under English law.
- It is worldwide in scope with The Town Of Arad Israel named as a priority, so a project outside Arad is not ruled out, though Arad may come first.
- The annual report shows £213,098 paid out, but it gives no grant range, so size your request to your own project rather than to any typical figure.
- Applications are accepted on a rolling basis and trustees meet regularly to consider them, sometimes face to face, so a clear written case followed by a willingness to talk is sensible, but the charity publishes no address, email or phone number for applications, so check the annual report for a route in before you write.
