OPEN ARMS INTERNATIONAL

Open Arms International is a humanitarian organisation dedicated to raising orphaned and abandoned children in Africa to reach their full potential. We provide physical, emotional and spiritual relief for all people through practical care, medical expertise, and Christian Ministry.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received Government grants
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile recently
