The Machzikei Hadass Communities
At a glance
Key takeaways
- This funder's stated purpose is the observance of Orthodox Judaism and Orthodox Jewish education, and it distributes money to Jewish religious organisations and to people in need in the Jewish community, so a request from work outside that purpose is unlikely to fit.
- Its stated geographic focus is Lancashire and Cheshire, so a group based there is the clearest match.
- No way to apply appears in the annual report, its register entry or other pages about it, so a short written enquiry asking what it will consider is a sensible first step before any full proposal.
- The grant range is not stated, so the annual report gives no guide to a realistic amount, and a modest, specific request is the safer starting point.
- Its distributions take account of the need to retain reserves, so a request should set out clearly what the money is for.
