Key takeaways

  • The foundation accepts requests only by invitation and does not take unsolicited applications, so a small charity should not send a cold request and should look elsewhere unless it already has a route to the trustees.
  • Its stated areas are animal agriculture, education (particularly venture and management education), pensions, and scientific and medical research in under-funded areas, and the trustees consider grants that fit its key objectives.
  • Its named grants to organisations have ranged from £100,000 to £1,450,000, with a median of about £190,000, so the typical grant is far larger than a small charity's usual ask.
  • No geographic focus is stated; the annual report shows grants mainly in Tel Aviv and London, but that describes where money has gone, not who may apply.
  • The annual report does not say how invitations arise or when, so it is the best place to check before deciding.
