The Schreib Trust
Key takeaways
- The trust's stated themes are poverty relief, religion and religious education, and its stated geographic focus is throughout the world, so work in those areas is worth considering.
- Neither the annual report nor the register entry gives a grants figure or grant range, so no realistic request size can be drawn from them, and a modest request is the safer starting point.
- No publicly published application process was found in either source, so a short written enquiry before preparing a full application is the sensible first step.
- Grants are made at the trustees' discretion in line with the trust's principal objectives, so a clear link to those objectives matters most, and the available information says nothing about how competitive or relationship-led the trust is.
- No exclusions are named, so no type of applicant is ruled out.
