About us
Who we are
The Sam and Bella Sebba Charitable Foundation (SBSCF) is a grant-making family foundation which seeks to promote a more humane society by supporting vulnerable people and protecting their rights. We award approximately £3.5m in grants annually, split between the UK and Israel across a wide range of issue areas including refugees and asylum seekers, human rights, violence against women and girls and young people at risk. We favour adventurous grants for social innovation capable of effecting transformative change and encourage shared learning. The charity was initially established by Samuel Sebba in 1967 and all its assets were transferred to the Foundation in 2020. The Sebba family is still actively involved in the Foundation.
