MMK Foundation directs most of its funding to Orthodox/Chasidic communal institutions in and around Monsey, NY, concentrating support on a small number of recurring local recipients. The foundation's largest awards go to organizations with Hebrew/Chasidic names suggesting yeshiva, synagogue, or community service functions, while a portion of funds is reserved for small miscellaneous local contributions. Its giving appears mission-driven toward sustaining core religious and community infrastructure rather than broad or national causes.
Concentrated giving to a few repeat grantees: majority of dollars go to 2–3 organizations via multiple grants, supplemented by smaller miscellaneous contributions; emphasis on moderate-to-large single grants rather than many tiny awards.
Mmk Foundation’s recent giving is defined by large general-support grants to Orthodox and Chasidic communal institutions in and around Monsey, New York. Its two biggest reported awards go to Khal Chasidim in Spring Valley and Darkai Avois in Brooklyn, both above $57,000, showing a pattern of substantial backing for religious and community infrastructure rather than project-specific funding. The foundation also supports local institutions in Monsey itself, including Vien and Congregation Chasadim Tovim Inc., alongside recurring help for yeshiva- and synagogue-related organizations in Brooklyn and nearby communities. The grant list suggests a small, relationship-based portfolio with repeated support to the same recipients across multiple years. Vien appears in both 2024 and 2025; Darkai Avois and Khal Chasidim each receive multiple awards; and Bais Shifra Miriam also appears more than once. Smaller local disbursements appear alongside the larger awards, including miscellaneous contributions in Monsey. Overall, Mmk Foundation gives with a clear local religious-community orientation and uses general support as its primary funding mode.
Mmk Foundation’s funding centers on religious and communal institutions. In 2025, it gave $58,551 to Khal Chasidim in Spring Valley for general support, and it awarded $57,530 to Darkai Avois in Brooklyn for the same purpose. Those grants point to ongoing support for Chasidic and Orthodox infrastructure rather than a narrow project line. Jewish education is another visible theme. The foundation gave $20,655 to Bais Shifra Miriam in Brooklyn in 2025, following prior support of $8,082 in 2024 and $6,053 in 2023 to Bais Sifra Miriam in Monsey. It also funded Yeshiva Slabodka in Brooklyn with $8,900 in 2025. Local congregational support appears as well. Awards went to Congregation Chasadim Tovim Inc in Monsey, Congregation Bais Moshe in Brooklyn, and Cong Skver in Monsey, all under general support.
Typical grant size is modest to mid-sized: the 25th percentile is $2,474, the median is $5,526, and the 75th percentile is $23,980. The distribution is wide, with a small number of large awards and many smaller local grants. The recent record also shows recurrence: Vien, Darkai Avois, Khal Chasidim, and Bais Shifra Miriam each receive support in more than one year. The foundation appears to function as a private grantmaker focused on general support and flexible funding rather than restricted project grants. Grantmaking is local and entirely U.S.-based in the available record.
