Rosenberg Memorial Fund

The Rosenberg Memorial Fund is a generalist charitable trust registered in England and Wales on 21 May 2015, overseen by a small trustee board chaired by Matthew Pintus with Frances Christie. Its enduring mission advances health, education, and the arts to benefit the general public, primarily by supporting students in medicine, architecture, and applied arts through intermediary charities that provide scholarships, bursaries, and training access. Rooted in removing barriers to education and training in these fields, the Fund's ethos emphasizes widening participation, societal well-being, and flexible grantmaking for health advancement, saving lives, and cultural enrichment via arts, heritage, culture, and science.

It funds project-based initiatives and restricted support channeled exclusively to UK-registered charities delivering direct student aid or broader educational/health outcomes, such as scholarships enhancing access in priority disciplines or activities promoting general health and cultural advancement across England and Wales.

Eligible applicants must be UK-registered charities operating in England and Wales, with a preference for small to medium-sized organizations impacting students or education; no strict income limits apply, but unsolicited applications are not accepted—trustees proactively select grantees based on alignment and track record. Grants typically range from £2,000 to £15,000 (most £5,000–£10,000), decided at biannual trustee meetings with no fixed deadlines or open rounds.

Distinctively, the Fund avoids direct individual support, core costs, capital, capacity building, or emergency funding, focusing instead on systemic impact through charities in its niche student-focused areas while maintaining a broad generalist approach without religious or regional sub-priorities, setting it apart for organizations driving educational equity in medicine, architecture, and arts.
