JEWISH LITERARY FOUNDATION

The aim of the Jewish Literary Foundation is to stimulate and encourage the reading of books on every aspect of Jewish thought, life, literature and history and culture.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
