The NSB Family Foundation concentrates its giving on Orthodox Jewish communal life in Brooklyn, primarily funding a small number of synagogues and a yeshiva. Most dollars go to recurring operational support for institutions (school and congregational purposes), suggesting a focus on sustaining local religious education and worship institutions. Grants are modest in number but large in share to a couple of repeat recipients, indicating close relationships with core community organizations.
Concentrated, relationship-driven giving: a small number of multi-year or repeated grants that direct the majority of funds to two or three core grantees rather than many disparate recipients.
Nsb Family Foundation’s recent giving is centered on a small set of Orthodox Jewish institutions in Brooklyn, with one yeshiva and one synagogue receiving repeated support across multiple years. Yeshivat Ateret Torah appears as a core recipient, with grants in 2023, 2024, and 2025, while Shaare Rachamim also received support in 2023 and 2024. That recurring pattern points to sustained institutional backing rather than one-off project funding. The foundation’s grants are directed to charitable purposes tied to synagogue and school operations, and the recipient list is dominated by Brooklyn organizations. Congregation Bnei Binyamin, Cong Bnei Yosef, Bnei Yerushalaim, Mosdot Botoshon, and Yad Yosef all appear among recent awards, alongside additional support for other local religious nonprofits. Outside Brooklyn, the foundation’s recent grants extend to a smaller number of New Jersey recipients, including Ohel Simcha, Congregation Magen Abraham, and Beth Medrash Govoha. Across the recent record, the foundation funds institutions that serve worship, study, and communal infrastructure within Orthodox Jewish life.
A major theme in the foundation’s grantmaking is yeshiva support. It gave $64,081 in 2024 to Yeshivat Ateret Torah and followed with $26,552 in 2025, both described as support for the institution’s charitable purpose. The same recipient also received $8,416 in 2024 and $2,950 in 2023. Synagogue operating support is another clear pattern. Shaare Rachamim received $32,980 in 2024 and $12,000 in 2023, with both grants marked as support for the institution’s charitable purpose. Congregation Bnei Binyamin also received a $10,000 grant in 2025. The foundation also backs other Brooklyn-based religious organizations, including Cong Bnei Yosef, Bnei Yerushalaim, Mosdot Botoshon, Yad Yosef, and Mirrer Yeshiva, showing a steady emphasis on local institutional continuity.
Typical grants are modest in size, with a p25 of $500, a median of $750, and a p75 of $2,950. The pattern is mixed: many awards sit at the lower end of the distribution, while a few recurring recipients account for much larger amounts. The same institutions appear across multiple years, especially in Brooklyn, which suggests continuing relationships rather than isolated awards. The foundation is a private family foundation and does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The grant descriptions repeatedly use language such as support for an institution’s charitable purpose, which indicates operating or general institutional support more than restricted project funding.
