Key takeaways

  • This funder fits best if your work sits within its stated objectives: the advancement of the Jewish religion, Jewish religious education, and the alleviation of poverty among the Jewish community, plus other charitable activities its trustees decide on.
  • Its typical grant falls between £15,000 and £75,000, and its median grant in the annual report was £26,000, so a request in that region is a realistic starting point, though that band is not a ceiling.
  • Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, but the charity publishes no address, email or phone number for them, so check the annual report for how to get in touch before writing to the trustees with a clear request that matches their objectives.
  • Its published giving is modest overall, and the trustees decide on the funds available, so expect the decision to depend on that as well as on fit.
  • Organisations whose work falls outside these religious, educational and charitable objectives are unlikely to suit.
