Chevras Tsedokoh Limited

Chevras Tsedokoh Limited is an established grant-making charity registered in England and Wales, operating since at least the 1990s, with a mission to advance traditional Jewish religious principles through support for religious education and poverty relief among Jewish communities. Rooted in orthodox Judaism, it upholds core values of tradition, religious observance, communal responsibility, and prudent stewardship, funding initiatives that sustain Jewish life, culture, and educational standards via investment income from property and endowments, disbursing over £800,000 annually as a faith-led anchor for orthodox communities.

It prioritizes registered Jewish institutions providing religious education—especially for children and families facing economic barriers—and organizations delivering poverty relief, including direct aid, operational support, and capital projects like facility improvements. Beneficiaries are primarily UK Jewish communities, with grants favoring projects ensuring measurable educational uplift and financial assistance aligned with traditional doctrines.

Eligible applicants are strictly UK-registered charities upholding sound traditional Jewish principles, focusing on medium-to-large, well-established entities with robust governance and proven service records; grassroots or small groups are not prioritized, and non-Jewish causes are excluded. Unsolicited applications are not accepted—funding occurs at trustee discretion within established networks, with no open calls, forms, or deadlines, aligned to annual meetings and a September year-end.

Typical grants range from £25,000 to £100,000, emphasizing revenue and capital for sustained impact. Distinctively, as an invite-only funder reliant on self-generated income rather than public appeals, it differentiates through its exclusive orthodox focus, high-value consistency, and role in capacity-building for Jewish education and welfare, excluding non-aligned or individual-focused efforts.
