Rentrust Foundation Limited

Rentrust Foundation Limited, a registered UK charity and private company limited by guarantee established in July 2014 in London, is governed by three founding trustees: Pessi Eisenbach, Chavi Simon, and Esther Leah Wosner. Its core mission advances education, relieves poverty, illness, and frailty, and supports other charitable organisations through grants and donations. With a generalist approach, it emphasises education and training, poverty alleviation, and religious activities, particularly benefiting people of specific ethnic or racial origins—often implying Jewish communities—and disadvantaged groups, blending needs-based support with a faith-informed lens that prioritises one-off flexible funding over structured programmes.

The foundation funds projects and occasional core costs for UK-registered charities addressing education, hardship relief, religious life, and minority community needs, with a focus on grassroots efforts serving vulnerable populations across England, Wales, and the UK at large. It supports both organisational activities and specific initiatives without thematic silos, favouring small to medium-sized charities (typically incomes from tens of thousands to under £1 million) that align with its broad charitable objects.

Unsolicited applications from eligible UK charities are welcomed via email or post, including organisational details, aims, fund use, and evidence of need—no formal template or online portal exists. Reviewed at regular trustee meetings on a rolling basis (no fixed deadlines), expect decisions within several months. Grants typically range from £2,000 to £25,000, scaling with project scope. Distinctively flexible and responsive rather than portfolio-driven, it avoids multi-year commitments, published grantee lists, or large national entities, setting it apart for charities seeking agile, values-aligned support in ethnic, faith-based, or poverty-focused work.
