GYNAECOLOGY CANCER RESEARCH FUND

The Eve Appeal's vision is a future where fewer women develop and more women survive the five gynaecological cancers. To achieve this vision we raise money to support and fund world-class research into the five gynaecological cancers alongside raising awareness of them. The five gynaecological cancers are ovarian, cervical, vulval, vaginal and womb (also known as endometrial or uterine).
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • Unrestricted reserves appear to be dangerously low at the latest year end
  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
  • Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
