Mw (cl) Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- MW (CL) Foundation is worth approaching only if your work promotes education, relieves poverty or financial hardship, or advances the Orthodox Jewish religion, since its grants follow those objects.
- About 8 in 10 of its grants to organisations fall between £6,000 and £25,000, with a median of £9,000, so a modest request near that middle is the most sensible size; the largest grant in the annual report was £50,000, so that band is not a ceiling.
- Grants are almost always made to institutions, so an individual should not apply.
- No published application process was found in the annual report or the register entry, so expect to make first contact without a set form.
- The sources say nothing about how competitive it is or when it decides, so plan around that uncertainty.
