Lechem Shlomo
About This Funder
Lechem Shlomo is a UK-registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) established in 2014, dedicated to advancing Orthodox Jewish religion and education, alongside general education, poverty relief, sickness prevention, and welfare for public benefit. Governed by trustees Samuel Krausz, Juda Matyas, and Salomon Gutmann, it embodies a faith-driven ethos rooted in sustaining Orthodox Jewish life, learning, and community welfare across England and Wales, with annual grant expenditure exceeding £750,000. Its distinctive approach relies on trustee discretion without published strategies, enabling flexible support for aligned charitable causes rather than direct service delivery.
The funder prioritises grants to organisations advancing Orthodox Jewish religious activities, education, training, health initiatives, disability support, and poverty alleviation, particularly in areas with significant Orthodox Jewish populations. It enables other charities through funding for core costs, projects, or capital needs, focusing on medium-sized entities in religious, educational, and welfare spaces, while broadly permitting other English-law charitable purposes at trustees' discretion.
Eligible applicants must be UK-registered charities based in England or Wales, with a strict Orthodox Jewish orientation; it does not accept unsolicited applications, lacking any public forms, guidelines, or open processes. Grants, awarded ad hoc via trustee decisions without deadlines or cycles, typically range from several thousand to tens of thousands of pounds.
Lechem Shlomo stands out as a specialist, discretion-led funder eschewing competitive rounds for targeted support of faith-aligned organisations, excluding non-Jewish causes, non-charities, or those outside its geographic remit, ensuring resources amplify Orthodox Jewish communal resilience.
