Dina Perelman Trust Limited

The Trust funds general charitable purposes, core costs, projects, and recurrent support for UK-registered charities. Its cause areas include religious activities, education, poverty relief, and ethnic minority benevolence, with a strong emphasis on Jewish communal life. It supports communal infrastructure, such as faith-based institutions and training programmes, as well as initiatives that advance access to education and training. The Trust focuses on medium-to-large established institutions in England and Wales, with occasional international funding. It prioritises work that strengthens faith communities, relieves poverty, and provides educational opportunities for people of specific ethnic origins, especially Jewish communities.

Eligible applicants are UK-registered charities with a proven track record. The Trust gives priority to medium-to-large established institutions serving Jewish communities and other ethnic minority groups. It does not fund individuals, grassroots startups, or new micro-charities. Funding arises through trustee-identified opportunities or charity referrals; unsolicited applications are not accepted. Charities seeking support should be aligned with the Trust’s focus on religious, educational, and poverty relief causes.

The Trust does not fund individuals, grassroots startups, or new micro-charities. It also does not support causes outside its aligned areas of religious, educational, and poverty relief work, particularly those not benefiting Jewish communities or ethnic minorities. Unsolicited applications are not accepted; funding is only available via trustee-identified opportunities or referrals.

The Trust provides both multi-year and recurrent funding, often supporting core costs and projects. It works through trustee networks, referrals, and prior relationships, and does not accept unsolicited applications. The approach is discreet and relationship-driven, with funding decisions made without a formal application process.
