Kupas Hachesed Foundation concentrates its giving on Orthodox Jewish communal institutions in the Spring Valley/Monsey area, supporting synagogues, yeshivas and neighborhood charitable relief efforts. Grants are mostly unrestricted/charitable support to local congregations and community welfare organizations, with occasional funding for direct food/hunger relief programs.
Kupas Hachesed Foundation Inc directs its recent giving to Orthodox Jewish communal life in the Spring Valley and Monsey area, with charitable support flowing to synagogues, yeshivas, and neighborhood relief organizations. In 2023, its largest grant went to Keren Rachamim Inc in Monsey, a $77,000 award that sits alongside support for congregational and educational institutions serving the local Jewish community. The foundation’s pattern points to broad operating or charitable support rather than a narrow project-only approach. Among the year’s recipients were Cong Bais Shifra Miriam in Suffern and Cong Khal Torath Chaim Viznitz Of Monsey Inc, showing that its funding reaches both synagogue institutions and adjacent communal organizations within the same regional network. The presence of a local food-relief recipient among the grants also suggests that the foundation’s charitable giving extends beyond worship and schooling into practical welfare support. With all reported grants staying in New York, the foundation’s work is tightly rooted in a defined local religious community and its institutions.
The foundation’s giving is centered on Orthodox Jewish institutions and community services. In congregational support, it gave $40,000 to Cong Bais Shifra Miriam in Suffern and $37,000 to Cong Khal Torath Chaim Viznitz Of Monsey Inc in Monsey, both listed as charitable grants. Religious education is another clear thread: Yeshiva Institute Divrei Shmuel in Monsey received $31,000. The foundation also backs communal welfare organizations, including a $13,200 grant to Mosdos Shomrei Emunim Inc in Monsey. A food-assistance angle appears as well through justBreadAndButterorg in Monsey, which received $6,675. Across these grants, the common pattern is support for institutions that serve Jewish communal life locally rather than broad, multi-state programs.
Typical grant size falls at $11,600 at the 25th percentile, $31,000 at the median, and $38,500 at the 75th percentile. The 2023 grants shown here range from $6,675 to $77,000, with several awards clustered around synagogue and yeshiva support. The pattern reads as local, recurring community investment rather than one-off national philanthropy: every reported grant went to a New York recipient, and the foundation’s giving is described as concentrated in the Spring Valley/Monsey area. Kupas Hachesed Foundation Inc is a public charity, not an individual-giving vehicle, and it does not make program-related investments. The available data does not show an application process.
