The Y B Charity
At a glance
This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. Don't spend time on an approach; the similar funders below support the same kind of work.
Key takeaways
- Do not send an unsolicited application, because the trustees do not accept them; the funder works by invitation only, which suggests a relationship-led process.
- Its stated focus is UK-registered charitable organisations, primarily, and its geographic focus is the UK.
- Its work centres on human rights and human dignity, with access to education and specialist legal advice among its themes, and the trustees focus primarily, but not exclusively, on charities whose objectives include defending and promoting human rights, so a work outside that area is a weaker fit.
- Typical grants reported fall between £15,000 and £75,000, with a median of £40,000, so size any request within that band, which is typical rather than a ceiling.
