Y G S Yeshiva Gedola Seminar
At a glance
Key takeaways
- This funder fits best with organisations working in Orthodox Jewish religion, Orthodox Jewish education or poverty relief, which are the themes its stated objectives set out, and work outside these is unlikely to match them.
- Its typical grants run from £10,000 to £375,000, with a median of £42,000, so size a request against that band rather than assuming the top of it.
- Trustees select institutions according to their personal knowledge of their work and do not actively invite applications, though they accept and carefully consider any they receive, so applications are accepted on a rolling basis.
- The charity publishes no address, email or phone number for applications, so confirm the route to make contact before assuming one, and note that help depends on circumstances and funds available, so a grant is not assured.
