Does your community or organisation support the advancement of
Progressive Judaism?

Does it promote the principles and development of Liberal Judaism?

Are you looking for funding
for a new project?

If so, the NLPS Trust for Progressive Judaism may be able to provide a grant to support your project. Each year the Trust is able to make grants totalling about £60,000. These range from a few hundred to several thousand pounds.

All grants support the advancement of Progressive Judaism, with a particular focus on communities and organisations which promote the principles and development of Liberal Judaism.

The Trust has previously funded all sorts of projects. We have contributed to:

Educational projects, such as equipment and books for religion schools
Courses to train lay leaders, including Ba’alei Tefillah programmes
Prayer books, haggadot and chumashim
Portable arks and repair of scrolls
Support for newly-established LJ communities
Small-scale refurbishments/upgrades to synagogue buildings and furniture
Live-streaming facilities
See other Example grants

In addition, the Trust has made grants to support various initiatives and programmes funded through Liberal Judaism (LJY bursary fund, LJY on-line programming, student rabbi living allowance bursary, LJ Biennials, subsidies for places at Limmud).

We support both established and emerging communities and are keen to hear from you,
whether or not you have applied to the Trust before.
