About Neumark Foundation

The Neumark Foundation is a family-led philanthropy established in 2016 by Peter and Maria Neumark, rooted in their vision for their local community in North Wales. It is dedicated to enhancing the lives of children and young people up to age 26, focusing on education, employability, wellbeing, and addressing isolation and social disadvantage. The foundation values close collaboration with grantees, offering tailored support alongside funding, and has a strong preference for revenue proposals over capital requests. This local, hands-on approach defines its funding character.
