Bobov (M/C ) Ltd

Bobov (M/C) Ltd is a registered charitable company established on 20 June 2012 in Manchester by trustees Nuchem Schlaff, Chaskel Lamm, and Yosef Schreiber. Its core mission is to advance orthodox Jewish education and religion, relieve poverty, and support charitable purposes aligned with orthodox Jewish doctrines, fostering faith, learning, religious observance, and community solidarity within the local Jewish population. With a traditional ethos emphasizing religious integrity, communal infrastructure, and welfare needs, it sustains orthodox institutions through targeted grants, facility provision, and direct services, distinguishing itself by its unwavering commitment to orthodox principles without trading, trustee pay, or broad fundraising.

The funder prioritizes orthodox Jewish education (e.g., Talmudic study programs), religious life (synagogues, worship), and poverty relief for the Jewish community, supporting religious schools, community centers, capital projects like buildings and fit-outs, core funding, and welfare initiatives. Beneficiaries include individuals and grassroots-to-mid-sized organizations delivering these activities.

Eligible applicants are UK-registered charities, academic institutions, or community groups based exclusively in Salford City or Manchester, serving the orthodox Jewish community; no income thresholds apply, though smaller local entities are preferred. Unsolicited applications are not accepted—grants are awarded discretionarily by trustees via pre-existing community ties, with no formal process, deadlines, or open rounds; meetings occur ad hoc.

Distinctively local and faith-specific, Bobov (M/C) Ltd excludes non-Jewish or non-local causes, national projects, or unrelated charities, focusing annual outlays (£30,000–£260,000 total) on grants typically £5,000–£50,000 to reinforce Manchester/Salford's orthodox Jewish fabric.
