Shar Hamelech
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Shar Hamelech's stated purposes centre on the Orthodox Jewish religion, Orthodox Jewish education and education in general, and the relief of poverty, sickness and infirmity, so work outside these fields is unlikely to match its objectives.
- The annual report gives annual giving of £614,955 and describes support for religious educational and other charitable institutions, which suggests where a request is most likely to be considered.
- England is its stated priority, but it also reports supporting institutions abroad.
- No grant range is stated, and no way to apply was found in the annual report or register entry, so a grant writer should not assume an open application route and may wish to ask the charity how it takes requests.
- Requests are considered in accordance with its principal objectives, and nothing published says how competitive or timed its decisions are.
