Through its main benefactor, Leo Noe, The Rachel Charitable Trust support various charities within the UK and Israel. The charity was established for general charitable purpose and in particular for the relief of poverty and the advancement of religion and religious education.
The Foundation considers granting a small number of substantial capital donations for worthy causes that fall within its priority areas.Emphasis is placed on: the care, welfare and support of children (including education); the promotion of health, welfare and the advancement of medical services; the relief of poverty, indigence and distress; the care, welfare and support of the aged, infirm, handicapped and disabled; and the support of the arts.
The Trust supports the advancement of the Jewish religion by strengthening the continuity of normative Judaism, and the promotion both in Israel and elsewhere of projects which are both charitable according to English Law and benefit the wider Jewish Community.
Every year BIG gives out millions of pounds from the National Lottery to good causes. Our money goes to community groups and to projects that improve health, education and the environment.
