register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.ukAbout Hearo Trust Fund
The Hearo Trust Fund is a UK-registered charity with three core aims: advancing education worldwide, preventing and relieving poverty, and promoting the Orthodox Jewish religion in line with Shulchan Aruch principles. The Trust takes a practical approach, seeking to remove barriers to learning, alleviate hardship, and foster religious observance. Trustees serve without remuneration, reflecting a philanthropic rather than commercial character. This distinctive blend of broad humanitarian support and religiously specific priorities sets the Trust apart, prioritising projects that demonstrate high alignment with its aims.
What Hearo Trust Fund funds
The Trust funds educational programmes for people of all ages globally, alongside poverty relief initiatives such as hardship grants and loans for vulnerable individuals. It also supports Orthodox Jewish activities including synagogue development, faith-based education, and ritual projects. Work is primarily UK-based, though international projects that fit the Trust’s aims may be considered. The Trust prefers small to medium-sized organisations and supports both mainstream and faith-based sectors, focusing on grassroots and community-led efforts.
Who can apply
UK-registered charities and academic institutions are eligible to apply. The Trust primarily supports organisations based in the UK, but international projects meeting its aims may also be considered. Beneficiaries include disadvantaged people, Orthodox communities, and aligned charities or academic institutions. There is no strict income threshold, and the Trust welcomes applications from both mainstream and faith-based organisations, with a preference for small to medium-sized bodies.
What Hearo Trust Fund doesn't fund
The Trust does not support endowments or general fundraising campaigns. Grants are not available for organisations or projects that fall outside its three core aims of education, poverty relief, and Orthodox Jewish promotion.
How they like to fund
The Trust awards grants at the trustees’ discretion and does not accept unsolicited applications. Funding can cover project costs, core costs, and limited capital needs. The Trust prefers to support small to medium-sized organisations and works by invitation rather than open application rounds.
