Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

Direct relief and poverty aid through Orthodox Jewish charities
Israel-based humanitarian giving via US conduit funds
Yeshivas, kollels and congregations in Brooklyn, Lakewood, Monsey
Food assistance, medical referral and crisis funds (Tomchei Shabbos, Refuah)
Assistance grants paid directly to individuals
Chabad and outreach institutions in the US and abroad

Typical grant

Median grant is $30,000, with the middle half between $10,000 and about $110,000. The very large checks, $1.6M to $3.4M, go to a small set of pass-through and relief funds like Central Fund of Israel, Rodef Shalom Vachesed, AFO Zavat Chalav and AFO B'nai Levy, while the long tail of $5,000 to $50,000 checks goes to individual yeshivas, congregations, mikvahs and local chesed funds. With 508 grants to 238 recipients across four years, most grantees repeat, so this reads as a recurring roster rather than a fresh slate each year.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

“HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE”
“AFO”
“VARIOUS INDIVIDUALS (INFORMATION AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST)”
“TOMCHEI SHABBOS”
“KUPA SHEL TZEDAKA”

Positioning adjacent work

Every grant is coded "HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE"; frame work as direct relief to people, not research or study.
Connect to their food, medical and crisis-relief cluster: Tomchei Shabbos, Refuah Resources, Sephardic Medical Resources.
Ask in the $10,000 to $50,000 band unless you already sit inside their institutional network.
Israel-directed work should route through an established US friends-of entity, matching their AFO grantee pattern.

Worth knowing: Giving is almost entirely within the Orthodox and Haredi Jewish world, concentrated in Brooklyn, Lakewood, Monsey and Jerusalem, and four recipients absorbed over $10M in the 2024 record alone. There is no research or program category anywhere in the file, and the roster looks relationship-driven and community-based, so a cold approach from outside that network is unlikely to land.

Top recipients

Repeat recipients are the strongest signal of whether a funder has an open door or quietly re-funds the same organizations.
