About Chabad Belgravia

Chabad Belgravia is a faith-based organisation, established in 2012, that advances traditional Jewish religious life, education, and welfare across London's central neighbourhoods of Belgravia, Mayfair, Kensington, Chelsea, and Holland Park. Rooted in Chabad Lubavitch principles, it nurtures an inclusive Jewish community through synagogue services, adult and youth education classes, cultural events, holiday celebrations, and practical relief for those facing hardship due to age, illness, disability, poverty, or disadvantage. The Trust blends direct service delivery with targeted grant-making to strengthen Jewish identity, combat social exclusion, and foster communal responsibility. This distinctive approach allows it to address both spiritual and material needs within the community it serves.

What Chabad Belgravia funds

The funder supports Jewish education and outreach, including classes and programmes that deepen knowledge and observance. It also funds communal activities that bring people together, religious observance initiatives such as holiday celebrations and synagogue services, and welfare interventions that provide practical relief for individuals and families experiencing hardship due to age, illness, disability, poverty, or disadvantage. Grants are made to aligned Chabad branches and Jewish institutions, primarily for educational purposes. All funding is directed toward work taking place within the central London neighbourhoods of Belgravia, Mayfair, Kensington, Chelsea, and Holland Park.

Who can apply

Beneficiaries are primarily drawn from the local Jewish community in central London. The Trust prioritises both the community as a whole and vulnerable subgroups within it, such as those facing hardship due to age, illness, disability, poverty, or disadvantage. Eligibility for funding is strictly by invitation and is limited to Jewish-focused projects or entities operating in the specified central London areas. The Trust shows a preference for small to medium-sized organisations. It does not accept unsolicited applications or approaches from organisations outside this scope.

What Chabad Belgravia doesn't fund

The Trust does not support non-Jewish causes or initiatives. It also excludes projects or organisations that are not based in or serving the specified central London neighbourhoods unless they have received a specific invitation. Any work falling outside its core religious, educational, and welfare remit is not considered for funding.

How they like to fund

Funding decisions are made by invitation only, and the Trust does not accept unsolicited applications. It operates through a localised, autonomous model, making grants to aligned Chabad branches and Jewish institutions alongside its direct service delivery of welfare and religious programming. This approach reflects a blend of proactive support for the local community and targeted contributions to external Chabad entities for educational work.
