About The Association Of Jewish Refugees (Ajr)

The Association of Jewish Refugees (AJR) is a UK-based charity focused on supporting Holocaust refugees and survivors in Great Britain through welfare, social care, and financial assistance, while also funding education and remembrance work about the Holocaust. Its grantmaking is highly mission-specific: it supports older survivor communities directly, and it backs project-based Holocaust education, testimony, archives, and research that connect historical memory to contemporary issues such as refugees, antisemitism, and genocide. AJR tends to fund organizations with strong subject-matter credibility and clear evaluation plans, rather than broad general operating support.

Giving Approach

Mix of direct member assistance and competitive project grants. Self-Aid provides small discretionary monthly grants, seasonal payments, and occasional interest-free loans to low-income AJR members; education/project grants typically cover up to 50% of project costs, are usually not for core operating expenses, and are reviewed three times per year, with larger requests of £10,000+ requiring a fuller application and external recommendation.
