Yaazoru Inc. is overwhelmingly focused on supporting Orthodox Jewish religious life and institutions, directing most of its funding to synagogues, yeshivas/mesivtas and kollel Torah-learning programs in the NJ/NY Orthodox communities. Grants are often large and repeat to the same institutions, indicating long‑term institutional support for prayer communities, advanced religious study, and charitable relief within that community.
Highly concentrated and relationship-driven: a small set of religious institutions receive the bulk of dollars through large and repeat grants (several six‑figure awards and one multi‑million disbursement). Very few discretionary or new grantees; predominantly institutional operating/program support rather than one-off project funding.
A single Brooklyn synagogue grant anchors Yaazoru Inc.’s recent giving: in 2024, it awarded $2,298,389 to Cong Tiferes Yakov Inc in Brooklyn. That scale is consistent with a funder that directs substantial resources to Orthodox Jewish religious institutions across New York and New Jersey, especially synagogues, kollelim, mesivtas, and related community organizations. The pattern is not limited to one beneficiary. In 2024, the foundation also gave $295,846 to Congregation Sharei Torah in Monroe, $259,200 to Ani Ledodi Inc in Brooklyn, and $123,984 to Congregation Chadei Nehorae Tav in Monroe, showing support for both prayer communities and institutions tied to advanced Torah learning. Several recipients appear more than once across recent years, including Tiferes Yakov, Shemesh Ztadukah, and Cong Mesivta, which points to ongoing institutional support rather than one-time project funding. The grant names and purposes in the recent record indicate a consistent emphasis on core operating needs for Orthodox communal life, with giving concentrated in the NJ/NY communities it serves.
Yaazoru Inc. gives across a tightly related set of Orthodox Jewish cause areas. For synagogue support, it awarded $295,846 to Congregation Sharei Torah in Monroe and $112,400 to Congregation Tefila Lemoshe in Spring Valley, both central community institutions. In advanced Torah learning, the foundation gave $410,000 to Kollel Sharei Tzion in Brooklyn for general support and $116,560 to Uta Mesivta of Kiryas Joel in Monroe. Education for boys and teenagers also appears in the record through grants to mesivta institutions, including $76,320 to Cong Mesivta in Brooklyn and $53,976 to Cong Mesivta in Monroe. Community welfare organizations are present too, such as the $105,717 grant to Vyazreim in Spring Valley for general support and the $185,850 grant to Shemesh Ztadukah in Monroe.
Yaazoru Inc.’s typical grant size sits at a p25 of $10,409, a median of $20,000, and a p75 of $56,663, but its recent record also includes several six- and seven-figure awards. The distribution suggests a mix of mid-sized support and very large institutional grants. Recipients appear repeatedly across years, including multiple grants to the same synagogues, kollelim, and mesivtas, which indicates ongoing support for established organizations rather than single-year project funding. The funder is a public charity and does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The available recent-grants record shows grants to U.S. recipients only.

Grantmaking is concentrated in New York, with Brooklyn and Monroe appearing most often in the recent grants list, alongside Spring Valley and Far Rockaway. Brooklyn recipients include Cong Tiferes Yakov Inc, Kollel Sharei Tzion, and Ani Ledodi Inc. Monroe recipients include Congregation Sharei Torah, Shemesh Ztadukah, and Uta Mesivta of Kiryas Joel. Spring Valley also appears through Congregation Tefila Lemoshe and Vyazreim.
