Harofeh Donations Limited is a charitable company limited by guarantee, established in England in 2010 and governed by the Oestreicher family trustees. Its core mission is to advance the Jewish religion, promote Jewish religious education across all ages, and alleviate poverty among Jewish communities in the UK and internationally. Rooted in a commitment to sustaining Jewish life, values, and continuity, the funder emphasises religious observance, education, and welfare for vulnerable groups. It operates as a family-led philanthropic entity, delivering grants to synagogues, religious schools, and welfare organisations through strategic, invite-only partnerships.
What Harofeh Donations Limited funds
The funder supports core costs, project funding, capital projects, and activities that enhance Jewish religious practice, education, and poverty relief. Priority is given to established institutions serving Jewish beneficiaries, such as synagogues, religious schools, and welfare organisations. While the focus is on medium to large UK-registered charities based in England, some international Jewish causes may also receive support. The funder's work centres on advancing the Jewish religion, promoting Jewish religious education across all ages, and alleviating poverty among Jewish communities.
Who can apply
Harofeh Donations Limited funds UK-registered charities, with a preference for medium to large organisations that have a significant community presence. Beneficiaries include Jewish children, youth, the elderly, disabled individuals, and those of Jewish ethnic origin. The funder is distinctively Jewish-only, meaning it supports only charities that serve Jewish populations and advance Jewish religious and welfare outcomes. No strict income thresholds apply, but the funder's pattern favours established institutions with a strong track record.
What Harofeh Donations Limited doesn't fund
The funder does not support secular causes, non-charitable entities, or broader philanthropy that falls outside its Jewish-only focus. It avoids funding organisations that do not serve Jewish beneficiaries or advance Jewish religious, educational, or welfare outcomes. Unsolicited applications are not accepted, as the funder operates strictly by invitation.
How they like to fund
Funding is strictly invite-only, with trustees identifying and contacting aligned partners directly. The funder supports core costs, project funding, and capital projects, and may provide both one-off and multi-year grants. It does not accept unsolicited applications or public proposals, and all funding decisions are made internally by the trustees.
