848 Charity Fund concentrates its giving on Orthodox Jewish religious institutions and educational programs, primarily in Brooklyn/New York-area communities. The foundation makes a small number of moderate-to-large grants to synagogues, yeshiva/mesivta programs and community religious services, often funding the same organizations more than once. Its support appears aimed at sustaining religious life and local Jewish education rather than broad secular philanthropy.
848 Charity Fund’s most distinctive recent grant is a $48,300 award in 2025 to Shalvat Habayit in Jerusalem, showing that its religious giving reaches beyond New York even though its overall footprint is local. The foundation’s recent grants center on Orthodox Jewish institutions and educational programs, with support flowing to synagogues, yeshiva-related education, and community religious services. It also appears to maintain relationships with established recipients rather than making one-time awards only. In 2025, it gave $36,000 to Netina Vechinuch Bechen Uvechesed in Brooklyn, and in 2024 it supported that same organization again with $14,000. Other recent awards include funding for a mesivta program, a Brooklyn religious institution, and a New York-based aid organization. The pattern suggests a funder focused on sustaining religious life and Jewish education through targeted institutional grants, with most dollars directed to a small set of community organizations. That narrow scope, paired with repeat support, is a defining feature of the foundation’s giving.
Orthodox Jewish religious institutions anchor 848 Charity Fund’s giving. It awarded $36,000 in 2025 to Netina Vechinuch Bechen Uvechesed in Brooklyn, and the same organization received $14,000 in 2024, indicating ongoing support for a local religious-education institution. Jewish secondary education is another clear area: the fund gave $13,000 in 2024 to Cong Mesivta in Brooklyn, pointing to mesivta-level programming as part of its portfolio. Community religious life also appears in the grants list through support for Knesset Yehuda in Brooklyn at $10,600 in 2024 and Bnei Yerushlayim in Brooklyn at $5,000 in 2025. A separate 2024 grant of $5,000 to Pef Israel Endowment Funds Inc in New York, NY shows that its giving is not limited to one organizational type, but it remains closely tied to religious and communal Jewish support.
Typical grants cluster in a fairly tight band: the 25th percentile is $10,600, the median is $13,000, and the 75th percentile is $14,000. That distribution suggests the foundation usually makes moderate grants, with a few larger awards above that range. The recent list also shows repeat support: Netina Vechinuch Bechen Uvechesed appears in both 2024 and 2025, matching the broader pattern of relationship-based funding. 848 Charity Fund is not listed as making grants to individuals and is not shown making program-related investments. Its grantmaking is concentrated in a local geography, with all recorded recipient locations in New York except one Jerusalem award.
