HMT Charitable Foundation concentrates its giving on Orthodox Jewish communal life in Brooklyn, primarily supporting a local yeshiva and the associated congregation. Grants are modest in number and size but focused—often directed to institutions tied to the Zichron Moshe community. The foundation appears to prioritize education within the Orthodox community and general support for the congregation’s charitable activities.
Highly concentrated and local: very few grants (3 total) with repeat support to the same beneficiary (Yeshiva Gedolah Zichron Moshe), modest dollar amounts, and a clear community/religious focus.
Hmt Charitable Foundation’s recent giving centers on Orthodox Jewish communal life tied to the Zichron Moshe community, with education and synagogue support recurring across its grants. The largest recent award in the record is $18,600 to Yeshiva Gedolah Zichron Moshe in South Fallsburg, NY, followed by $10,500 to Cong Zichron Moshe in Lakewood, NJ. That pattern points to a funder that supports both religious education and the institutions that sustain that community. The foundation’s portfolio includes multiple awards to the same core organizations over several years, including Yeshiva Gedolah Zichron Moshe, Cong Zichron Moshe, and Ahavas Chesed. It also backs other Brooklyn and Lakewood Jewish institutions, such as Cong Khal Veretsky, Ein Od Milvado, and Yeshiva Karlin Stolin. Purpose descriptions repeatedly reference education, teaching Torah, charity, services of charity, and support for houses of worship. Across the recent grants list, the emphasis is on modest, institution-focused grants rather than a broad, diversified program mix.
Education is the clearest funding thread. Hmt Charitable Foundation gave $18,600 in 2024 and $10,000 in 2025 to Yeshiva Gedolah Zichron Moshe, both for education. It also supported Yeshiva Mehalech Hatorah with $5,000 in 2025 for the teaching of Torah and Yeshiva Mkor Chaim with $3,600 in 2025 for the teaching of Torah. The foundation also funds congregational and charitable infrastructure. It gave $10,500 in 2024 to Cong Zichron Moshe to help fund the charity, then $4,800 in 2025 for charity support. Cong Khal Veretsky received $7,500 in 2025 and $6,000 in 2024, both for the charity. Other grants point to direct service and communal assistance. Ahavas Chesed received $7,000 in 2025 to help fund services of charity, and Gemilas Chesed Chasdei Dovid received $3,500 in 2023 to help fund services of org.
Typical grants are small: the p25 is $1,000, the median is $1,425, and the p75 is $2,500. The recent grants list also shows a few larger education awards, but most checks fall well below $5,000. Recipients appear across multiple years, especially Yeshiva Gedolah Zichron Moshe, Cong Zichron Moshe, and Ahavas Chesed, which suggests repeat support rather than one-off giving. The foundation is a private charitable foundation and does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. No application process is shown in the data.
