RAINBOW FUND FOR SOUTH AFRICA 

The Fund provides money to pay the salaries of nine teachers and a cook at the Rainbow School at the J L Zwane Centre in Guguletu, Western Cape. It also pays for about half of an administrator's salary and for a small amount of other overheads. The Rainbow School provides after school teaching and homework facilities to augment the effectiveness of the existing nearby primary schools.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
