Ahavas Chesed Trust
About This Funder
Ahavas Chesed Trust is a UK-registered charity established in June 2021, founded by trustees Abraham Adler, Isaac Abittan, and Menachem Steinmetz to promote education, relieve poverty, advance the orthodox Jewish religion, and protect physical and mental health through scholarships, grants, direct support, and medical aid. Rooted in the Jewish value of 'chesed'—kindness and practical compassion—its mission emphasizes responsive, community-oriented aid, particularly for the orthodox Jewish community, via targeted relief rather than systemic change, distinguishing it as a discreet, rapid-response funder within the UK's Jewish welfare ecosystem.
The Trust funds initiatives addressing acute needs, including emergency financial assistance for struggling families, medical costs and advice for health conditions, hardship payments, maintenance allowances, and support for religious practices and education access, primarily benefiting orthodox Jewish individuals and communities. It backs both people in crisis and aligned organisations delivering poverty relief, health interventions, and faith-strengthening projects, with a focus on practical, frontline outcomes like short-term aid over large-scale efforts.
Eligible applicants are limited to UK-registered charities and community groups based in England and Wales, with a preference for small to medium-sized grassroots entities serving orthodox Jewish needs; large national charities are rarely supported. Unsolicited applications are not accepted—funding is invite-only via trustee discretion on a rolling basis, with no deadlines or public forms. Typical grants range from £500 to £15,000, prioritizing modest, urgent interventions like core costs or projects, excluding unrestricted, long-term strategic, or capital funding. Its quiet, vetted approach ensures sensitivity and direct impact through cumulative small-scale acts.
