Key takeaways

  • Lechem Shlomo makes grants at the trustees' discretion within its principal objectives, which cover the Orthodox Jewish religion, Orthodox Jewish education, general education, poverty relief, and sickness and infirmity, so a request should show how the work serves one of these purposes.
  • The annual report and register entry describe no way to apply and no published process, so a grant writer would have to make first contact without a stated route.
  • The annual report gives total giving of £853,701, which may include grants to individuals, but the grant range is not stated, so a realistic request size cannot be set from the available information.
  • The geographic focus is not stated and no other eligibility rules or exclusions are published, so fit rests on purpose alone; a charity whose work falls outside these purposes would need to argue clearly that it fits the principal objectives.
