Lev Chaim
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Lev Chaim's stated geographic focus is around the world, but the cancer care it describes, including support for families across Greater Manchester, is the clearest fit for a small nonprofit working in that area.
- Its annual report shows £490 paid, and it separately gives £8,000 to individuals, though the register does not confirm the scale of its giving and no typical grant size is given, so a modest request is the safest starting point.
- It publishes no application process, so the sensible first step is to contact the charity using the details shown in its annual report, register entry or website before writing a proposal.
- Its grants are almost always to institutions, so a small charity applying as an organisation fits its pattern, while an individual seeking help may find that it does not.
- Nothing available says how competitive it is or whether relationships matter, so ask about both when you make contact.
