The Lauffer Family Charitable Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The trust makes grants to institutions for public-benefit work in its scheduled territories, which are listed as the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan, Ceylon, India, Israel and the United States, so a group working in one of these areas with a public-benefit purpose is the kind of applicant it describes.
- Its annual report shows over 150 institutional grants in a year, so a modest, clearly costed request is more likely to fit than a very large one, though the grant range is not stated.
- No application process is published, and trustees meet from time to time to consider grants and review applications received, so there is no known deadline to plan around; a short written approach, followed by patience, is the sensible route.
- Individuals are not what the trust says it funds, so an individual seeking personal support should not apply.
