Golders Green Beth Hamedrash Congregation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Its giving centres on education and on hardship within its own community, so a request that clearly fits one of those themes is the most likely to be considered.
- Most of its named grants fall between £5,000 and £20,000, so a request in that range is a realistic size, though its largest named grant was £22,000.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact details it shows and ask whether a request would be considered.
- Its Chomesh L'Chinuch fund is for educational establishments attended by children of synagogue members, so an organisation with no link to that community should not expect that fund to fit, although the annual report does not rule out other applicants.
