How to Apply for an Educational Grant
The AJR awards grants to a range of Holocaust educational and commemorative projects. Here are answers to some common questions, which you may want to consider before applying.
Deadlines:
AJR Trustees review grant applications three times a year – deadlines for applications are 15 April, 15 August and 15 December.
Application Process:
Applications must be made on behalf of a UK-based charitable organisation. Applications are not accepted from for-profit enterprises or individuals. After an application has been submitted, AJR may contact the primary applicant to clarify any points and/or to request additional information. All applications will then be considered by the AJR’s Trustees, who will assess the proposal based on its adherence to the AJR’s values and priorities; its likelihood of success; the scale of its impact; its engagement with the field; its sustainability and its financial picture.
Please note that it may take up to three months to be notified about the result of your application. For time sensitive proposals, please plan ahead. Successful applicants will receive a grant offer and conditions letter, which will set out the expectations relating to ongoing monitoring and consultation, grant instalments, evaluation and how the AJR’s support should be acknowledged.
If you are considering submitting an application and would like to have an informal discussion before doing so, please contact grants@ajr.org.uk.
