register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.ukAbout Zichron Meir Limited
Zichron Meir Limited is a grant-making charity established in 2004, based in Stamford Hill, London. Its mission is to advance Orthodox Jewish religious activities, education, training, and poverty relief. The Trust is sustained by investment income from property holdings, allowing it to allocate the vast majority of its expenditure to charitable impact. This reflects a conservative, sustainable approach to philanthropy rooted in Jewish communal values, with minimal administrative costs and strong governance. The Trust is a discreet backer of traditional Jewish infrastructure, focusing its support on institutions within the Orthodox Jewish community in the London Boroughs of Hackney and Haringey.
What Zichron Meir Limited funds
The Trust supports educational institutions, faith-based organisations, and welfare initiatives within the Orthodox Jewish community. Its funding advances religious activities, education, training, and poverty relief. Grants cover core operating costs, general expenses, specific projects, and capital infrastructure. All funded work is concentrated in the London Boroughs of Hackney and Haringey, reflecting a hyper-local approach to strengthening traditional Jewish life and learning.
Who can apply
Eligibility is restricted to UK-registered institutions that are based exclusively in Hackney or Haringey. The Trust favours medium-to-large established organisations with a strong Orthodox Jewish alignment and a significant local presence. Grassroots groups are unlikely to be a fit. The Trust does not fund individuals. All supported organisations must operate within the Orthodox Jewish community.
What Zichron Meir Limited doesn't fund
The Trust does not fund individuals. It only supports institutions based in Hackney or Haringey, so organisations outside these boroughs are not eligible. Additionally, funding is exclusively for Orthodox Jewish institutions; other faith or secular organisations are not supported.
How they like to fund
The Trust operates by invitation only; unsolicited applications are not accepted. Grants are awarded at the discretion of the trustees, without public calls or application forms. The Trust provides funding for both core operating costs and specific projects, as well as capital infrastructure. Its investment-led model ensures long-term capacity for sustained giving.
