Nuchem and Reisel Schlaff Memorial Fund Limited

The fund supports Orthodox Jewish institutions such as yeshivot, educational trusts, and welfare organisations. It funds core costs, student scholarships, poverty alleviation, and occasional social or medical needs. Nearly all giving advances religion, with a focus on established North London-based entities serving UK Orthodox communities. Occasionally, grants extend to aligned international efforts. Specific themes include Jewish scholarship, religious education, and communal welfare.

Eligible applicants are UK-registered charities with Orthodox Jewish priorities. No income limits apply, though medium-to-large established organisations predominate. The fund prioritises organisations rooted in North London serving the Orthodox Jewish community, including mature students in religious studies. Applications are accepted from charities aligned with Orthodox Jewish values and communal continuity.

The fund excludes non-Orthodox or unrelated causes. It does not support organisations or activities outside the Orthodox Jewish community or those not aligned with its religious and educational priorities.

The fund operates through a family-directed, relationship-based approach, accepting unsolicited applications via letter. Decisions rest on trustee discretion and alignment with the fund's mission. It supports core costs, student scholarships, poverty alleviation, and occasional social or medical needs, typically for established organisations.
