Shimon Yehuda
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Your work fits if it advances Orthodox Jewish education or religion, or relieves poverty, particularly among people of the Jewish faith, since the trustees can also back other charitable purposes they choose.
- The foundation's focus is recorded as worldwide, but it makes grants to UK-registered charities, so an organisation not registered in the UK is unlikely to qualify.
- No grant range is published, and the trustees give according to the funds available, so a modest request suits this funder better than a large one.
- The funder accepts applications on a rolling basis, so there is no deadline, but it publishes no address, email or phone number, so you will need to find a way to reach the trustees before you write.
