Rothschild Foundation (Hanadiv) Europe focuses on strengthening Jewish heritage, culture, scholarship, and communal life across Europe. Its giving is especially oriented toward museums, archives, libraries, universities, and Jewish communal organizations, with a clear emphasis on capacity-building, collections care, and advanced Jewish Studies research and training. The foundation tends to support specialized, field-building initiatives rather than broad general operating grants, and many opportunities are structured in grant rounds or targeted programs.
Primarily program-based grants and fellowships in Spring/Autumn rounds, plus some year-round expert/consultant visit funding. Grants are often small-to-moderate and targeted to specific projects, institutional initiatives, or professional development rather than unrestricted support.

Track the Spring/Autumn grant cycles closely, as many programs open first-stage applications only during specific windows. For collections or institutional projects, be ready to show clear heritage impact, expert need, and project feasibility; for academic programs, align proposals tightly to Jewish Studies scholarship and European beneficiaries. Some support, like expert/consultant visits, is open year-round, but most other opportunities are structured and deadline-driven.
