Al - Medina Trust

Al-Medina Trust, registered charity number 261188 with the UK Charity Commission, is a humanitarian funder dedicated to advancing education and relieving poverty worldwide. Established with a vision to alleviate hardship and enhance life opportunities for disadvantaged communities, its core mission emphasizes direct aid, educational access, and support for the needy without restrictions on religion, ethnicity, nationality, age, or background. Its ethos prioritizes inclusive, needs-led stewardship, evidenced by transparent annual reporting, unremunerated trustees, and a global remit that deploys resources flexibly to address acute deprivation.

The trust funds initiatives in education—such as scholarships, bursaries, and infrastructure—and direct poverty relief, including emergency aid and material support for individuals, groups, and communities facing exclusion or subsistence challenges. As a broad generalist, it supports diverse activities from grassroots efforts to larger interventions, with no narrow sub-themes, focusing on wherever need is greatest internationally.

Eligible entities are unrestricted by legal status, organizational size, income, or geography, welcoming applications from charities, groups, or individuals globally, though it shows flexibility for smaller or medium-sized beneficiaries. However, it operates invite-only, selecting grantees at its discretion without public application processes, forms, deadlines, or meeting schedules—unsolicited proposals are not accepted.

No typical grant ranges, minimums, or maximums are disclosed, and exclusions are limited to activities outside its core aims. What distinguishes Al-Medina Trust is its enduring, flexible global humanitarian focus, making it ideal for aligned causes seeking discreet, impactful support without bureaucratic hurdles.
