ORCHID MINISTRIES 

We continue to give varying amounts of support to the S E Asian organizations we work with. The majority of our donations are from sponsors specifically for the Palm House (now called Nehemiah Blessing Home but bank a/c is Palm House), in Cambodia as we are their only means of support. We are also helping Narin to complete the first childrens home "My Fathers House" in Boriram Province Thailand.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
