The Azouz Foundation is a UK family charitable trust established in June 2023 by members of the Azouz family. As a generalist grant-maker, its mission is to provide grants for broad charitable purposes, delivering public benefit without thematic restrictions or a targeted social focus. Guided by standard governance, the Foundation emphasises flexible, discretionary support to charities and voluntary bodies, reflecting a traditional family foundation approach. It stands out for its unrestrictive policy and broad eligibility, offering a flexible generalist option amid sector-specific funders.
What Azouz Foundation funds
The Foundation funds general charitable activities for both individuals and organisations, covering core costs and projects without specified causes or beneficiary groups. No thematic patterns emerge from public reports, making it suitable for diverse charitable needs rather than issue-specific initiatives. It supports registered charities based in England and Wales, with no income thresholds or size limits disclosed—small and large entities may qualify at trustees' discretion.
Who can apply
Eligible applicants are strictly UK-registered charities based in England or Wales. No income thresholds, size limits, or other criteria are disclosed, so both small and large entities may qualify at trustees' discretion. The Foundation does not specify preferred beneficiary groups, and no religious or other restrictions apply. Charities should note that it does not accept unsolicited applications.
What Azouz Foundation doesn't fund
The Foundation has no specified exclusions, thematic restrictions, or targeted social focus, reflecting its generalist approach. No causes, beneficiary groups, or types of activity are explicitly excluded from funding consideration.
