BRITISH FRIENDS OF BOYS TOWN JERUSALEM 

We raise funds through events, appeals and legacies to send to Boys Town Jerusalem in Israel, a school for Jewish boys who mainly come from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is completely male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
