OUR GRANT MAKING
In line with our 5 year plan to Dec 2023, the financial support offered by CHK Foundation is currently targeted to improve the lives and prospects of young people aged 11-24 who are “at risk”.
WHAT WE DO
CHK Foundation is an independent grant making charitable foundation. We fund registered charities and target our support in line with our 5 year plan.
WHO WE ARE
CHK Foundation is a family foundation set up as a charitable trust in the 1970s. The majority of the trustees are descendants of the founder, Sir Cyril Hugh Kleinwort (1905-1980).
OUR 5 YEAR PLAN
From Feb 2019 to Dec 2023, the Trustees will focus support to assist 25-30 charities a year. The funded charities will be working in a targeted way to improve the lives and prospects of young people aged between 11 and 24 who are “at risk” as a result of;
- involvement in the criminal justice system
- addictions
- leaving the care system
CHK Foundation undertakes its own research to determine the charities it wishes to consider for funding and will make direct contact to begin discussions about opportunities. CHK Foundation aims to fund both preventative and direct support.
