Revach Vehazola Trust

The Trust funds only emergency relief that prevents or alleviates poverty, specifically through food vouchers or equivalent material aid for families in acute need in Hackney, London. While small grants may go to grassroots charities or community groups serving Hackney's disadvantaged populations, the core activity targets direct beneficiary assistance. The Trust channels funds rapidly to frontline food poverty, setting it apart as a hyper-local, immediate-response funder for Hackney's poorest families.

Eligible applicants are UK-registered charities or community groups operating solely in Hackney, preferably small and grassroots-scale. The Trust prioritises families in extreme poverty, particularly those facing food insecurity. However, the Trust works mostly with pre-identified families rather than external proposals, reflecting its direct beneficiary model.

The Trust does not support projects, core costs, capital, capacity-building, advocacy, or activities outside Hackney. It avoids systemic change initiatives, endowments, or investments, focusing exclusively on immediate material aid for poverty relief.

The Trust takes a hands-on, community-responsive approach, distributing funds rapidly to frontline food poverty. It works mainly with pre-identified families rather than through formal application processes. Grants are small and needs-assessed, directed at urgent material support.
