Leket UK
About This Funder
Leket UK, a registered UK charity established in 2008 (originally as Table to Table UK), serves as the exclusive fundraising arm for Leket Israel, the nation's leading food bank and food rescue organization. Its core mission is to combat food insecurity and poverty in Israel by channeling UK-raised funds to rescue surplus nutritious food—such as agricultural produce and prepared meals—and distribute it efficiently to hundreds of thousands of beneficiaries, including children, families, elderly individuals, refugees, and those in chronic poverty. Grounded in values of dignity, efficiency, environmental responsibility, and waste minimization, Leket UK's single-minded approach aligns trustees and operations directly with Leket Israel's ambitions, emphasizing food rescue, distribution networks, nutrition education, and capacity building for over 200 Israeli nonprofits.
Thematic priorities are narrowly focused on Leket Israel's programs for hunger relief and poverty alleviation exclusively within Israel, with no support for UK-based initiatives or other organizations.
Leket UK does not accept unsolicited applications from any entities—UK charities, nonprofits, or otherwise—as all grants are made solely to Leket Israel, with no specified income thresholds, legal entity requirements, or geographic base beyond Israel. Funding decisions occur ad hoc by trustees, typically in large annual or periodic transfers ranging from £500,000 to £900,000, without public deadlines, forms, or competitive rounds.
Distinctively, over 99% of expenditure goes directly to Leket Israel, excluding small grants, direct UK services, third-party projects, emergency relief, or anything outside this exact remit; it is not a generalist funder but a dedicated conduit for Israel's food rescue ecosystem.
