The Nasod Charitable Trust, established by Trust Deed in 1992, is a UK-based funder dedicated exclusively to advancing religious Jewish organisations in line with traditional Judaism. Its core mission is to bolster Jewish communal life through religious education and philanthropic aid to the needy, preserving educational institutions and welfare efforts while upholding values of religious tradition, community solidarity, and targeted hardship relief. Governed by honorary trustees, it stands out for its unwavering focus on Jewish causes, distinguishing it as a niche supporter in the UK charitable sector. The Trust supports Jewish religious education and welfare initiatives, focusing on outcomes that enhance religious life and alleviate poverty within the Jewish community.
What Nasod Charitable Trust funds
The Trust funds Jewish religious education, including schools, educational resources, and schooling, as well as welfare initiatives that provide food, shelter, financial aid, and support to economically or socially disadvantaged Jewish individuals and families. Its objects include advancing the Jewish religion worldwide, particularly the Satmar Chassidim sect, and promoting Orthodox Jewish religious education, though it funds only UK-registered charities operating in the UK. Grants cover both project and core costs for aligned charities, prioritising outcomes such as enhanced religious life and poverty alleviation within the Jewish community.
Who can apply
Eligible applicants are solely UK-registered charities with a Jewish religious focus, aligned with traditional Judaism and the Trust's objects of advancing the Jewish religion, promoting Orthodox Jewish religious education, and relieving poverty. The Trust supports small to medium organisations without strict income limits. Beneficiaries are Jewish individuals and families, particularly those who are economically or socially disadvantaged. There are no regional restrictions beyond the UK.
What Nasod Charitable Trust doesn't fund
The Trust does not fund non-Jewish causes or activities unrelated to its religious and educational mission. Grants are not made to organisations outside the UK or to those without a clear Jewish religious focus.
How they like to fund
The Nasod Charitable Trust provides grants that can be used for both project costs and core costs. The Trust welcomes unsolicited applications from eligible UK-registered charities, with submissions made directly to the trustees. Grants are modest in size, reflecting the Trust's focus on supporting small to medium organisations within the Jewish community.
