About Gerson Berger Association Limited

Gerson Berger Association Limited is a UK-registered charity established in 1962 to advance Orthodox Jewish religious life and education. Rooted in traditional Judaism, the Association supports institutions that provide religious instruction aligned with Orthodox principles, safeguard Jewish heritage, and foster observance among children and young adults. Governed by family trustees, it takes a conservative, sustainability-focused approach, deriving its income from investments to support faith-based initiatives over the long term. The Association makes grants to Jewish schools, synagogues, and organisations delivering Orthodox education, religious programmes, and community projects for young people.

The Association funds Orthodox Jewish education and religious life, including religious instruction, heritage preservation, and observance among children and young adults. It supports Jewish schools, synagogues, and organisations delivering Orthodox education, religious programmes, and community projects for young people. Funding can support projects, ongoing programmes, core costs for established institutions, and occasional capital works, all tied to outcomes that promote traditional Jewish values and practice.
